trying out the ArmorySetup-0.89.99.8-beta_win32 install on a virgin install of Win 7 Home Premium 64-bit (SP1 + all updates).

it installs fine, but when run it fails with logfile errors.   anybody know if the _win32 means it won't work with 64-bit, or perhaps if i am missing some prerequisite installs?  (i had an earlier testing version working on another instance of win7, where i get the same errors with this version).


The win32 means that it is built as a 32-bit application, but 64-bit windows can still run 32-bit applications.  So far, I think most people have been testing the 32-bit app on 64-bit (and I've been using it on my 64-bit Win7 VM).  If there's a problem, perhaps it has to do with installing different versions and jumping around.  I would recommend removing it via control panel, and then remove all C:\Program Files\Armory and C:\Program Files (x86)\Armory.  Then reinstall.  There may still be a problem with the installer not deleting/overwriting everything.
this is the same problem i reported to you by email a few weeks ago. i haven't been able to get it working since. i've tried uninstalling and removing the obvious files like the folder in Program Files and AppData\Roaming Data, but no dice. unfortunately I don't have any VM snapshots without Armory installed. i'm currently using the standalone edition (0.89.99.3) as a workaround since it still works just fine.
