The error "This program is not a Win32 application" often occurs after installing new utilities. To fix it, you will have to reinstall or download a different version of the program, since this file is unsuitable for running in the installed operating system (OS).
Instructions
Step 1
The error text "Not a Win32 application" occurs on Windows operating systems when you try to run an application that is not intended for use on a Microsoft system and was created for other operating systems, such as Linux. Thus, if the program is not suitable for Windows, you will not be able to run it and you will have to download a different version of the utility.
Step 2
This error can also occur if the program file was damaged during download, unpacking or installation. If the utility was successfully unpacked, but after that it does not start, uninstall the program, and then reinstall it using the installer file.
Step 3
If after reinstalling you receive the same error message, you will need to download the installer file again. To do this, find the necessary program on the Internet and repeat its download from the site without interrupting the process and without closing the browser window. After the download is complete, run the resulting file and install it again.
Step 4
If an error message appears after uploading a new file, try downloading a different version of the utility from another resource on the Internet.
Step 5
Try running the app in compatibility mode. To do this, right-click on the executable file being launched and click "Properties". Go to the Compatibility tab and check the Run this program in compatibility mode box. After that, select an earlier version of the operating system and try starting again.
