<pre>
<code>platform:
- x64
install:
- ps: Install-Product node 10
- npm install -g yarn@latest
- yarn
shallow_clone: true
build: off
test_script:
- node -v
- yarn -v
- npm test</code>
</pre>
<p>I still see in the log:<br>
Uninstalling node 8.12.0 (x86)...<br>
Installing node 10.10.0 (x86)...</p>
<p>And unfortunately I need to use x64 because on of our deps doesnt support x84.</p></div>Andaristtag:help.appveyor.com,2012-11-13:Comment/461889422018-10-03T16:01:13Z2018-10-03T16:01:13ZHow to use x64 architecture?<div><p>Sorry for confusion, <code>platform</code> is relevant to Visual Studio based solutions. Please try using <code>- ps: Install-Product node 10 x64</code>.</p></div>Ilya Finkelshteyntag:help.appveyor.com,2012-11-13:Comment/461889422018-10-04T09:00:43Z2018-10-04T09:00:43ZHow to use x64 architecture?<div><p>Thanks, this helps - it wasn't obvious when reading the docs.</p></div>Andaristtag:help.appveyor.com,2012-11-13:Comment/461889422018-10-04T21:26:57Z2018-10-04T21:26:57ZHow to use x64 architecture?<div><p>Yeah, this is result of the fact that AppVeyor initially targeted .NET projects, and later started getting used with other frameworks. Node-related documentation is <a href="https://www.appveyor.com/docs/lang/nodejs-iojs/">here</a>. Note that our documentation is open source and you are welcome to contribute :)</p></div>Ilya Finkelshteyn
