put files in System32 instead of SysWOW64

I have a application which has Printer Driver.The Files should go in C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers\x64. but on Windows 7 64 bit the file is redirected to SysWOW64 where there is no spool\drivers\x64 folder .
Is their any way to redirect those files to C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers\x64

Please advise me

Thanks,

assuming this is an msi you could use a set directory CA on the appropriate folder.

No luck !

file is redirected to WOW directory.
MSDN say it can be done through disabling file redirection. but dont knw how to disable file redirection.

This has to be done via an API call.

I think you may have the wrong driver for 64-bit operation as , from my reading anyway, only 32-bit files get redirected here.
