64 Bit Applications Does Not Install In Windows 7 (64 Bit)?
Oct 12, 2012
I've a Windows 7 OS and is configured to 64 bit. See status below:C:UsersRatish>echo %programfiles% C:Program FilesSo, I think my OS is running in 64 bit mode itself. I also checked the system configuration and it said 64 bit.But, when I try installing any application with x64 mode, it does not install and throws a message saying this is Win32 m/c. So, though my OS is in 64 bit, it allows only 32 bit applications to work. Any idea how resolve this?

Some applications wont install on Win7 eg; Glary Utilities, Iolo System Mechanic 10.1.2 update,Malwarebytes Anti-malware plus some others i cant remember. As soon as the installation gets to Extracting files the progress bar stops and the entire system freezes neccessitating a hard reboot. Other progams install without a problem?

I'd like to create a backup image of a clean install of Windows + certain applications.My plan is this: Format my SSD that I am currently using. Install fresh windows 7, do all the updates, install a few choice applications, and then get an image of it to use for recovery. I have a few questions on this topic as well:
1. This is probably obvious, but I want to make sure; I can store the image wherever I like, correct? If I am using an SSD for my boot drive, I can image that, and store the image on a regular hard drive, right?
2. How big will the image be? Is it going to be as big as the entire drive that I back up? I cannot imagine how it would go any differently, but I am hoping for some unrealized magic.
3. Do I need to buy the Ghost software? If not, does it make imaging a whole lot easier to make it worth the price tag?
4. How arduous and time consuming is the actual recovery process?
p.s. Something I just thought of. I don't know how I would do the actual backup without an OS to interface with so maybe I could make the image contain everything except the basic install of windows to cut down on space and time. Is this feasible?

Some when we're installing applications they're requesting for "Restart PC before use that Software" (You must restart PC before use this software). So are there any way to run that newly installed application without restart PC or longing-off PC.

I use an Asus g50vt., Windows 7 Ultimate x64. Recently I've encountered a problem with my DVD drive. My DVD drive: HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-T50L ATA Device. I'm trying to install an application, in this case Guild Wars 2. Things are going smoothly until the installation freezes. If I try to interact with the DVD drive via My Computer, Windows Explorer freezes up and I need to end the process and start it up again. The disk will not eject from the drive. If I try to reboot, it freezes on boot-up and I need to turn the computer completely off and on again for it to work. Once it boots up, it's returned to normal. If I try to reinstall Guild Wars 2, the whole issue repeats itself.

Does anyone know if running 32 bit applications on the 64 bit edition of windows 7 will impact performance. My new laptop is consistently slow and unresponsive yet the task manager shows memory usage of just over 50% (2.1Gigs out of 4Gigs) and the CPU usage is minimal (like 20->30%). One thing I do notice on the resource manager though is that a significant number of the processes running are post-fixed with *32 which I believes indicates that they are 32 bit applications. Could this explain why my machine is so slow? Or should there be no significant overhead to running 32 bit applications? Also, if there is a significant overhead why does it not show up as increased memory/CPU usage rather than just making the machine unresponsive and slow?

I cannot open many applications in Windows 7 including Firefox, MS Word, and Excel. Some that do open will freeze during use. I suspect that a virus or malware could be causing these problems. The applications open in Windows Safe Mode okay. Here's the Hijackthis and DDS log:

I am experiencing a strange problem with my Windows 7 for last 2-3 weeks. When I use any application, suddenly Help Windows for application will pop up and it will not go away. If I try to close it, it opens again. This problem is spread across applications. Help Windows come up for SQL server, Microsoft Word and IE. Sometimes Help Windows won't let me do anything and I have to restart. It was only annoying till now but this problem seems to be spreading.I have checked F1 key and it is not stuck. Problem seems to be happening since I installed SQL server 2008 R2 around a month ago. I have Lenovo G450 with Windows 7 ( 64 bit ) installed.

I have a mystery I need to solve. I updated an Access application on a Network share. Users have a shortcut on their desktops pointing to the application as follows: Target: \Chtg02PublicGeneralReports and statsWTGReportsWTG_General.accdb All WinXP users see the updated application when they double click the shortcut, one Win7 user gets the previous version of the application when he double clicks the same shortcut. Questions: 1. Is Win7 caching the application? Where? 2. If 1. is yes, how do I refresh the cache manually?

For example, if I'm typing in Word, randomly the Word application/window will get unselected, as if I clicked something else. I won't be able to type anymore until I click the Word window again, it's pretty annoying too since I'm a fast typer. And this happens with everything. Games, browsers, etc. I've also noticed when I have something fullscreened, like a video or a game, after a few minutes the start bar at the bottom of my screen pops up, and I'm assuming whatever was fullscreened got "unselected," and that's why the menu bar pops up. I have McAfee (I'm about ready to uninstall it), and Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, and I've checked my computer many times but nothing has come up. This has been happening for over a month and I've just about had it.

I have used 64 bit version of Windows 7 to test the shortcuts, screenshots are included to give you a visual impression.Firstly, use [Windows key] and [R] to invoke the run command box:
1) Character Map = charmap.exe very useful for finding unusual characters.
2) Color Management = colorcpl.exe
3) Device pairing wizard= devicepairingwizard.exe
4) Display Switch = displayswitch.exe
5) Direct X diagnostic = dxdiag.exe
5) DPI Scaling = dpiscaling.exe
8) Driver verification manager = verifier.exe (Undocumented, Security prompt will appear, accept it.)
9) Event Viewer Snapin Launcher = eventvwr.exe (Security prompt will appear, accept it.)
10 ) File siganture verification tool = sigverif.exe
11) Private character editor = eudcedit.exe (Security prompt will appear, accept it.)
allows creation or modification of characters :
12) IExpress Wizard = iexpress.exe
Create self-extracting / self-installing package:
13) Group policy editor = gpedit.msc
Used to manage group policies, and permissions, (Security prompt will appear, accept it.)

The same version of the software (winrar) is installed on both, my XP and Win 7 computers. The look (menus etc) is completely different. Here are the screen shots: Click on the pictures to see the full size

As you can see the version is exactly the same. What do I have to do to make the application in Windows 7 have the same look like in XP?

I've searched around the internet but to no avail. Numerous Windows applications that come with the OS, such as Uninstall a Program, View Network Status, and so on will not start when I try to run them. For example, if I go into the Control Panel and select one of them, the Control Panel window freezes for a minute or two, nothing happens, and then it's back to normal again. The selected program does not start. I'm running a fresh install of Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit. The only new things I've installed are drivers for the hardware, and Skype, and Chrome. The hardware itself is presumably not causing the problem, and it's a nice system so it's not some sort of lack of processing power that's causing it. I've already tried reinstalling the entire operating system. The user account I'm on is an administrator account. Some applications such as Device Manager work just fine.

Win 7 Back reads:Windows Backup won't back up the following items:Program files (files that define themselves as part of a program in the registry when the program is installed). Does that mean that the applications contained in the folder Program files will not be backed up ready for a restore when there is a system crash?I want to make a system image for restoring my operating system which will be located on C with applications.

I'm using Windows 7 x64. I have placed the taskbar on top. I've noticed many applications will open at the top with the titlebar underneath the taskbar. This is extremely annoying and incredibly dumbfounding how Microsoft released Windows with this bug.

I have an older PC with Windows 7 and XP dual boot on a 640GB HD. Recently built a new quad core PC and installed Windows 7 on a 60GB SSD. There is also a new 640GB HD for applications and data.
Spent quite a bit of time searching for the best method of transferring the applications and data setting from the old PC with single HD to the new PC's with SSD and HD. PCMove and True Image are mentioned as options but not sure how they can handle 2 destination drives. I dread the thought of adding each application one by one.

My Win7 won't let me run certain applications or .exe files, mainly games. Some it does and some it doesn't for no apparent reason. I've got 3 HDDs (2 int, 1 ext) and I've tried running it from all three and still nothing. The same thing happens everytime, I try to run it, the loading icon appears and then nothing. No error message and no apparent cause. My hardware can take it, I've got the correct DX and nothing.I've tried running it as an admin to no avail and I've tried running it in safe mode. When this happened the application loaded but said I needed to get DX 9.0 (Which I have) and enable hardware acceleration (which it is).

This is my first Tom's Hardware post, hoping someone replies soon. Anyways, to the problem: When certain applications are run, that were first seemingly random, Skype, Fallout 3, Borderlands 2, etc. would crash the computer and it would not unfreeze until I hard reset the computer. I know it isn't an overheating issue because me and a friend dusted everything out, from heatsinks to power supplies, and it still froze. It even used to do it when we logged in, but the afore-mentioned friend fixed it. I think I might have nailed down the pattern, but there's some ungrounding evidence against it too. I think the pattern is if it launches the CPU up high really quickly, but the evidence against it is the original Borderlands works with no hitches. It's hard to predict which applications will freeze the computer, so I need help. It is an eMachines ET1331G-03w with all the stuff it came with, so Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, AMD Athlon X2 processor, nVidia GEForce 6150SE Integrated graphics card. I know I need a new graphics card, don't bother telling me

At the risk of being tagged a Luddite, as a writer I still prefer to use DOS-based Xywrite for raw word- processing. XP permitted me to open this full screen with an "Alt/Enter" combination, but Vista permits only a relatively small window. I've tried installing XP to a partition, to no avail, so remain somewhat frustrated. Bottom line: will the "virtual XP" element of Windows 7 permit me to open DOS-based programs full-screen?
