Wix Custom Action always creates 32 bit powershell process. How to make it to create a 64 bit process?

Question

I'm executing a powershell script using WixQuietExec. As a part of the ps1 file, I'm trying to set a registry key under the HKLM path.

 Set-ItemProperty -Path 'HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Config\Update' -Name Machine -Value "AXBD"

When I create the MSI using Wix and install it. Set-ItemProperty always fails with error 'Cannot find path 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Config\Update' because it does not exist.'

I've logged the result of $([Environment]::Is64BitProcess) during the execution of this PS1 script and it always returns false. In a 64 bit powershell process, Set-ItemProperty succeeds. How to make WIX Custom Action generate a 64 bit process?

I've tried the following solutions

1. Attached the snippet from product.wxs file. I included Win64="yes" in RegistrySearch. After I included it, MSI logs show powershell path as C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe. Earlier it was C:\Windows\SysWow64\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe. But still the result of $([Environment]::Is64BitProcess) shows false during the execution of this PS1 script.

2. Also, I've tried creating the WIX project build using the active solution configuration as 64 bit platform - https://stackoverflow.com/a/62130230/22926112 & Custom action as 64 bit process.

3. In How to start PowerShell in WiX with proper access to Windows Registry?, it is mentioned to use C:\Windows\sysnative\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe path of powershell for registry access, but the path is not present in windows 10.
