Wouldn't it be easier to remove {app}.exe in the build process and
then rename {app}64.exe?

The other annoying thing about this is while app.exe will launch
app64.exe, it registers as a new process.  I have code in Praxis LIVE
that launches sub-processes and I noticed that if it goes through
app.exe the process is no longer controllable and registers as ended.

Best wishes,

Neil
