The Windows build of LiveCode is 32-bit but that doesn’t mean it won’t run on 64-bit Windows. You’ve got to go out of your way to find a 32-bit version of Windows these days if you’re running Windows 7, 8, 8.1 or 10 so if you’re testing on any of those, it is most likely a 64-bit version. As such, most of our development and testing on Windows is done on 64-bit versions.

If you have any information about the problem, please submit it to our bug database.

Thanks,
