Added disk space..
Adobe acroread has the same problem - only 32-bit is/was available and it requires supporting 32-bit libraries on a 64-bit system. At one time, 64-bit systems were cutting edge new blazing hot. Now, they are the new norm. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rapidly troubleshoot problems before they affect your business.
