Hi Greg,
Thanks for trying it. Good to know that it works.
I don't know that we will ship it like this. I first wanted to make sure it
actually worked and get some folks to experience it so we can consider how much
time we want to spend to "reduce friction". The app knows it is 64-bit because
we modify the -app.xml file. I also noticed that System.totalMemory is larger
in the 64-bit app. So the 64-bit version could have a different UI or
background color or something if that will help. Right now, the only
difference is that it says "64-bit" in the log.
Thanks,
-Alex

It's definitely not without some friction, but it works!
I think I did not realize that it had launched the downloaded 64 bit
version so I did exit and relaunch from 32 bit again before I 'got' it.
Anyhow I installed 4.16.1/Air 30 sdk sucessfully with it.
Observations:
It also did have a weird startup window position where it was spanning
monitors and had a vertical offset in my multi-monitor setup when launched
(which may be something new or may be because I have a new setup and this
is the first time I am using the installer on it) but that is just a simple
matter of moving the window.
I saw a couple of Norton warnings along the way, including one for the
downloaded 64 bit version missing a valid signature.
