How can I create an installer for my project that can work on 32-bit Windows if I have 64-bit Windows Vista?

[Langelier]

Hi, 

I made a LabVIEW project that works perfectly and made an installer for it. I tested the installer on my own computer and everything worked well. The goal for my installer was to put it on multiple computers. So I tried to do this on another computer that has Vista 32-bit and it told me that the installer can only run on 64-bit computers. I tried to choose to install run-time 32bit and it did not change anything, there was still a message to tell me that this installer only can be ran on 64-bit computers. How can I make an installer that works on 32-bit computers? 

Thank you.

I betieve that you need to install the x86 32bit version on your PC too and build an installer from that.

I'm guessing you are using a 64-bit LabVIEW.  Have you tried building the installer with 32-bit LabVIEW?

No, I did not try it, and yes I have the 64-bit version of LV. Will my project work on 32-bit version even if created on 64-bit version?

The code will have to recompile, but yes it should work.  I recommend making a backup before proceeding just in case.
