In my manifest xml file I have this setting, does it mean that only 64bit Windows10 installations do accept my package? My app is native 32bit, which setting is recommended to this field to make it work with both 32 and 64 bit os?
ProcessorArchitecture="x64"
I think if you set ProcessorArchitecture="x64" in your manifest xml file, the package just only was installed on the x64 Windows 10. But you can set
ProcessorArchitecture="x86" in the manifest, because this x86 package can all work fine on x86 and x64 Windows 10.
This answer based on VS C++, but the context is basically the same for manifests. Surprised to see that W10 X86 only installations actually exist, but they do, (or did), because, as the free W10 upgrade did not provide an option to change architectures, only a clean install would.
However, from an old Tom's Hardware post:
All processors since the Opteron in 2003 and the intel Pentium 4 Prescott ( the latter editions ) has 64bit instruction set and will all run 64bit windows.
Thus as long a MSFT continues to support 32 bit architecture, X86 is the safer option, although X64 would probably still work.
processorArchitecture='*'
covers all bases as well.
Microsoft's documentation says to use processorArchitecture="ia64" for Windows 64-bit builds; however, they do not follow their own advice. Microsoft uses "amd64" for 64-bit builds of WordPad.exe and iexplore.exe (Internet Explorer 64-bit) according to the embedded app manifest of these EXEs on my Windows 10 computer.

I tried the latest version of IDA (the free version), and it didn't work.
It seems that only a 64-bit version had been installed.
My computer is 32-bit.
Can IDA only run on 64-bit environment now?
I've seen no announcement regarding such change.
Can IDA only run on 64-bit environment now?
Actually even paid license version of IDA runs on x64 only. The HexRays company provides limited support for 32 bit with a single goal - support for old 32bit plug-ins for old versions of the IDA.
In this case you have to use IDA Freeware 5.0 or something else, depending on your OS. For macOS and Linux good disassembler is Hopper Disassembler.
For downloading IDA Free 5.0 check this answer (same question with a problem of running on 32 bit OS): https://reverseengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/19179/older-versions-of-ida-free
IDA free version support only x64 binary files.
If you want to disassemble x86 binary files you should use non-free versions.
The wxPython package must run in 32 bit mode, but the official MySql download page does not have any link to download the 32bit installer. Do you know where to download the 32bit installer of MySql?
Thanks
UPDATE: I am trying to download MySql 32 bit for Mac.
You are incorrect. The Cocoa build of wxPython supports both 32-bit and 64-bit architectures. From the wxPython downloads page:
The file with "cocoa" in the name use the Cocoa API for implementing the GUI, requires at least OSX 10.5, and supports either 32-bit or 64-bit architectures.
The Carbon builds are built for i386 and PPC.
Also note that if you go into the Development Releases tab on the MySQL downloads page, it has 32-bit tars and dmgs
I have the Nvidia Quadro NVS4200M along with Intel Integrated Graphics (on my laptop). I can't seem to get the CUDA 5.0 toolkit installation to succeed.
I am running Windows 7 Enterprise Edition 64-bit. I tried the 64-bit desktop & notebook installers and the 32-bit installers.
All of them seem to fail with the error message "Display Driver failed installation". I installed the latest drivers from here, and it is supposed to support CUDA-5.0, and despite that, the installation fails.
After failure, the libraries and binaries are present, but NSight Eclipse (which seems to have no standalone installation link) isn't installed. What could be the possible issue?
I'm not sure why the driver install failed in your case, but if you
have a "recent" driver installed, it's not necessary to use the
driver that comes with the cuda installer. The cuda installer
offers individual options to install the toolkit (required), samples
(optional), and driver (required only if you have an older driver),
so you can just select "no" when prompted for the driver install, to
avoid this, assuming you have a recent driver or installed one such
as the 307.45 driver.
You should always use a 64 bit installer if you have a 64 bit OS.
The only officially supported C/C++ compiler for windows is cl.exe, the microsoft compiler that ships with either Microsoft Visual Studio (the Express edition will do, it is free), or the Windows SDK (for command line use only). You're free to experiment with other stuff, but your mileage may vary. MS VS 2010 (and 2008) are the easiest to use. MS VS 2012 can be made to work but may require extra steps.
I recommend installing cuda after installing Microsoft Visual Studio. This is because the cuda installer should automatically find your VS installation and update some important files to make building cuda projects easier.
nsight Eclipse Edition is a linux-only tool (or mac). It is not for windows use, and will not be installed by the windows cuda installers. nsight EE provides an environment for code building, debugging, and profiling. In windows, the corresponding operations can be done via MS VS IDE for code building, the standalone visual profiler for profiling, and using a separate plug-in, nsight visual studio edition, for debugging and profiling within visual studio. Due to the way visual studio is constructed, nsight visual studio edition will not work with the free versions of visual studio. nsight visual studio has it's own separate installer.
The windows getting started guide may also be of interest.
I was running VSExpress 2010 C# and SQLExpress 2008 on 32b XP. Due to a failure I am now on Win7 64bit. I have reinstalled VSExpress C# (64b). I installed SQLExpress (64b) however my application uses the Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 driver to connect to a Office 2007 (32b) database. I could not get the Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 to load on SQLExpress (64b).
What do I need to do to get Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 working again in SQLExpress? Do I need to run the 32bit version? (I have downloaded it but am having problems getting it to install so I am asking while I uninstall all of my SQLExpress)
Thanks for the help. (I saw a lot of similar issues addressed but could not find a solution for my specific problem)
I think this post has the answer you're looking for -- download 64-bit version of ACE OLE DB driver. However, apparently it requires installing 64-bit version of Office as well.
Otherwise go and install WoW-enabled 32-bit version of SQL Server 2008 Express. Go to this download page and download SQLEXPR_x86_ENU.exe (note: the one without 32 in the file name). It should install on 64-bit system.
I had the same problem and couldn't install the 64 version because I have 32 bit office installed as well (so the 64 bit installed terminated). I changed the build of my program to x86 instead of AnyCPU and the 32 bit ACE worked as given in this Stack Overflow question
If you are trying to use the 32bit version you will probably need to install the 32 bit version of the Microsoft Office Database engine. However if you have 64bit office installed this will show a message saying that 64bit is already installed.
If you install the Microsoft Office Database engine using the "/PASSIVE" command line argument it will install without the prompt, and then you can use the 32 bit ACE.OleDB.12 driver.
Beware in some situations this can cause complications with Office 64bit.
I had to install the Access 2007 Runtime to fix this. Here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=4438
I'm mostly set up for CUDA development. I've installed the developer drivers, CUDA 4.0 toolkit, and the 4.0 SDK, as well as the bugfix. I'm running Windows 7 x64, and am using Visual C++ 2010 Express. For 32-bit applications, I perform the following steps and my CUDA applications work properly.
Create new empty project
make sure Platform Toolset is set to v100 (normally the default)
check the CUDA 4.0 Build Customization for the project
set the item type of my .cu file to CUDA C/C++
add 'cudart.lib' to Properties->Linker->Input->Additional Dependencies
I can also run non-CUDA 64-bit applications. Visual C++ 2010 Express does not come with 64-bit dependencies automatically, so I had to install the Windows 7.1 SDK w/ .NET Framework 4.0. Then I simply set the Platform Toolset for the VC++ project to Windows7.1SDK, change the Active solution platform to x64, and I'm good to go.
However, I can't seem to do both at the same time - I can't create a 64-bit CUDA application. If I change the Platform Toolset of a CUDA application to Windows7.1SDK, whether the Active solution platform is x64 or Win32, I get the compile error that nvcc.exe exited with code -1. And if I leave the Platform Toolset set to v100 and change the Active solution platform to x64, I get the compile error "fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'kernel32.lib'. The only combination that works is v100 and Win32, and obviously that prevents me from running a 64-bit application.
Is there a procedure for enabling this functionality that I just haven't been able to find online? Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks for your time.
Not possible in express edition , ( does not support plugins ) unless you want to setup nvcc manually , and use notepad to write cu files, I very much prefer the VS integration .
You could check that the host compiler properties for the .cu files are set to 64-bit.
Right-click the "Code.cu" file and click 'Properties'.
Expand the "CUDA C/C++" item and select "Common".
Change "Target Machine Platform" to 64-bit.
