My x64 bit dx11 process loads dxgi.dll and claims to be using the one from C:\Windows\System32\dxgi.dll.

However, whenever I inspect it in ram, the opcodes don't match up at all as if its loading a different version of the dll.

How can I find the real location/module that it is using?

Windows maps the system32 folder to a different real folder depending on if the executable is 32 bit or 64 bit. Under a 32 bit process, this will map to SysWOW64, which contains the 32 bit binaries. A 64 bit process will get the 64 bit binaries in system32. A 32 bit process can see the 64 bit binaries by using the sysnative folder, which will map to system32.
