I was working on a website in Visual Studio 2013 in 64 bit machine. The properties of solution/project was set to run as Any CPU which means to run the app as 64 bit when 64 bit processor found else 32 bit.
In my 64 bit machine, the website was being starting as 32 bit and the reason was that the process hosting the website was "IISExpress" and it was being run in 32 bit mode.
Again, the Any CPU flag also follow the caller of the app.
If the caller of app is running in 32 bit, the application would run in same as well.
Anyways, to change the IISExpress to run as 64 bit, check the box under :
Tools | Options | Projects and Solutions | Web Projects | Use the 64 bit version of IIS Express
HTH
