[CMake] Win64 and InstallRequiredSystemLibraries.cmake

[David Cole]

It's looking in the right place. You're using the 64-bit regedit. If you
view it with the 32-bit regedit (found, paradoxically, at
C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\regedit.exe) then you'll see it as 32-bit cmake is
asking for it...

Side note: you can always use Process Explorer from sysinternals.com to
examine running processes to determine if they are 32-bit or 64-bit if you
need to. I would say Process Explorer is the most indispensable tool that
exists on Windows.

So you include InstallRequiredSystemLibraries and what happens?
