Run Command Line in Task Sequence for a 64-bit OS

When running certain applications and commands through the “Run Command Line” task sequence in System Center Configuration Manager 2007 for a 64-bit Operating System you might find that the task will fail. This is true for applications that don’t fully support 64-bit mode. Some commands are not available by default when running in 32-bit mode, for example “manage-bde.exe” or “winsat.exe.

To work around this issue, simply disable the “64-bit file system redirection” in the task sequence when running such applications or commands.
