Rather than conditionally including the opening Directory elements (which invalidates the XML), conditionally set preprocessor variables which are used as directory names, as @Daniel Pratt's comment refers to. Similarly, having a "yes/no" variable conditioned on platform makes it easy to set up 64 bit components, registry searches, etc.

Defining the variables

(From this answer)

<?if $(var.Platform) = x64 ?>  <?define ProductName = "Product Name (64 bit)" ?>  <?define Win64 = "yes" ?>  <?define PlatformProgramFilesFolder = "ProgramFiles64Folder" ?><?else ?>  <?define ProductName = "Product Name" ?>  <?define Win64 = "no" ?>  <?define PlatformProgramFilesFolder = "ProgramFilesFolder" ?><?endif ?>

$(var.Platform) is built-in, but its value is used to define custom variables $(var.ProductName)$(var.Win64) and $(var.PlatformProgramFilesFolder).

Using the variables

You can either use preprocessor <?if directives to test variables' values (as is done with $(var.Platform) when defining the custom variables above) or have the preprocessor insert variables' values into XML attribute or element values. Couple of examples:

32/64-bit components

<Component Id="..." Win64="$(var.Win64)">   ...</Component>

This will produce warnings in the Visual Studio WiX editor about $(var.Win64) not being one of the allowable attribute values (yes/no) but these can be safely ignored, because the preprocessor will have substituted an appropriate value by the time the compiler gets hold of it.

32/64 bit Program Files directory

<Directory Id="$(var.PlatformProgramFilesFolder)">  ...</Directory>

Update to handle separate 32/64 bit product codes

In response to rharrison33's comment asking how to handle the requirement for different product codes (or pretty much anything) in the 32 and 64 bit installers (assuming you can't/don't want to auto-generate them):

  • Pass separate product codes to candle as preprocessor variables, on the command line or using a response file:
candle <all other flags> -d ProductCode32=<guid1> -d ProductCode64=<guid2>
  • Add a product code as one of your architecture-dependent preprocessor variables, and set it to the appropriate input variable:
    • In the 32-bit <?if ?> branch: <?define ProductCode = "$(var.ProductCode32)" ?>
    • In the 64-bit <?if ?> branch: <?define ProductCode = "$(var.ProductCode64)" ?>
  • Refer to $(var.ProductCode) in Product/@Id.

Made this CW because Daniel's link answers the question and has a lot more great info besides.
