v4.8 Re-install: Where do the Registry Entries belong?

My backup .reg files all point to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Wow6432Node\Perspective Software\Blue Iris\Cameras.

But BI is not picking up from that location.

It's been way too long, and I can barely remember what I had for breakfast, but it seems like I have dealt with an issue around this before.

My guess is that the desired path is: Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Perspective Software\Blue Iris\Cameras and I need to do a "Change All" to the .reg file text before executing it.

Have I got it right?

If so, can anybody shed some light on how the "Wow6432Node\" entries got into my .reg file?
