Framework or Framework 64?

Question

Is there a way I can tell what framework I've been using as I need to access machine.config?

Framework or Framework 64 under C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\ directory both have the file.

From within the code? In C# 4.0 Environment.Is64BitProcess, in < 4.0 IntPtr.Size. And read How to detect Windows 64-bit platform with .NET?
