微软为此提供了一个代码示例:

http://1code.codeplex.com/SourceControl/changeset/view/39074#842775

它是这样的:

    /// <summary>
    /// The function determines whether the current operating system is a 
    /// 64-bit operating system.
    /// </summary>
    /// <returns>
    /// The function returns true if the operating system is 64-bit; 
    /// otherwise, it returns false.
    /// </returns>
    public static bool Is64BitOperatingSystem()
    {
        if (IntPtr.Size == 8)  // 64-bit programs run only on Win64
        {
            return true;
        }
        else  // 32-bit programs run on both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows
        {
            // Detect whether the current process is a 32-bit process 
            // running on a 64-bit system.
            bool flag;
            return ((DoesWin32MethodExist("kernel32.dll", "IsWow64Process") &&
                IsWow64Process(GetCurrentProcess(), out flag)) && flag);
        }
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// The function determins whether a method exists in the export 
    /// table of a certain module.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="moduleName">The name of the module</param>
    /// <param name="methodName">The name of the method</param>
    /// <returns>
    /// The function returns true if the method specified by methodName 
    /// exists in the export table of the module specified by moduleName.
    /// </returns>
    static bool DoesWin32MethodExist(string moduleName, string methodName)
    {
        IntPtr moduleHandle = GetModuleHandle(moduleName);
        if (moduleHandle == IntPtr.Zero)
        {
            return false;
        }
        return (GetProcAddress(moduleHandle, methodName) != IntPtr.Zero);
    }

    [DllImport("kernel32.dll")]
    static extern IntPtr GetCurrentProcess();

    [DllImport("kernel32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Auto)]
    static extern IntPtr GetModuleHandle(string moduleName);

    [DllImport("kernel32", CharSet = CharSet.Auto, SetLastError = true)]
    static extern IntPtr GetProcAddress(IntPtr hModule,
        [MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPStr)]string procName);

    [DllImport("kernel32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Auto, SetLastError = true)]
    [return: MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.Bool)]
    static extern bool IsWow64Process(IntPtr hProcess, out bool wow64Process);

还有一个可用的WMI版本(用于测试远程机器)。

还可以检查PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE环境变量。

它要么不存在，要么在32位Windows上被设置为“x86”。

private int GetOSArchitecture()
{
    string pa = 
        Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE");
    return ((String.IsNullOrEmpty(pa) || 
             String.Compare(pa, 0, "x86", 0, 3, true) == 0) ? 32 : 64);
}

对不起，是VB的代码。NET，但是很容易移植到c#。 它可以在Win7, x64和.Net Framework 4.8上正常工作:

Dim r As String = ""
Using searcher As ManagementObjectSearcher = New System.Management.ManagementObjectSearcher("SELECT * FROM Win32_OperatingSystem")
    Dim Information As ManagementObjectCollection = searcher.Get()
    If Information IsNot Nothing Then
        For Each obj As ManagementObject In Information
            r = obj("Caption").ToString() & _
            " - " & _
            obj("OSArchitecture").ToString() ' <--- !!! "64-bit" shown here
        Next
    End If
    MessageBox.Show(r)
End Using

使用以下两个环境变量(伪代码):

if (PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE = x86 &&
    isDefined(PROCESSOR_ARCHITEW6432) &&
    PROCESSOR_ARCHITEW6432 = AMD64) {

    //64 bit OS
}
else
    if (PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE = AMD64) {
        //64 bit OS
    }
    else
        if (PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE = x86) {
            //32 bit OS
        }

完整的答案是这样的(摘自stefan-mg, ripper234和BobbyShaftoe的答案):

    [DllImport("kernel32.dll", SetLastError = true, CallingConvention = CallingConvention.Winapi)]
    [return: MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.Bool)]
    public static extern bool IsWow64Process([In] IntPtr hProcess, [Out] out bool lpSystemInfo);

    private bool Is64Bit()
    {
        if (IntPtr.Size == 8 || (IntPtr.Size == 4 && Is32BitProcessOn64BitProcessor()))
        {
            return true;
        }
        else
        {
            return false;
        }
    }

    private bool Is32BitProcessOn64BitProcessor()
    {
        bool retVal;

        IsWow64Process(Process.GetCurrentProcess().Handle, out retVal);

        return retVal;
    } 

首先检查您是否处于64位进程中。如果不是，检查32位进程是否是Wow64Process。

下面是c#中使用DllImport的直接方法。

[DllImport("kernel32.dll", SetLastError = true, CallingConvention = CallingConvention.Winapi)] 
[return: MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.Bool)] 
public static extern bool IsWow64Process([In] IntPtr hProcess, [Out] out bool lpSystemInfo); 

public static bool Is64Bit() 
{ 
    bool retVal; 

    IsWow64Process(Process.GetCurrentProcess().Handle, out retVal); 

    return retVal; 
}
