Well you seem to be right, I've checked in my normal Windows 8.1. I never noticed because 32-bit processes can see both system32 and syswow64, and you can seem to go to system32 as well as syswow64, by those separate names; but in both cases you get the same files, from syswow64. Sneaky. I thought it was only when loading DLLs or relying on environment variables or in the registry. Thanks for the info.
