Hello,

A client would like me to install Across. According to the specifications it shouldn't work, because it requires Win 32-bit and I my PC is set up with Win 10 64-bit. However, the client insists that it's possible to install it anyway, but that some features might be restricted.

Many thanks in advance,

Hello

I don't know this specific piece of software, but from a general point of view, a programme designed to run on a 32-bit platform will always run on a 64-bit computer. But a 64-bit programme will not run on a 32-bit platform.

So my guess is that, if installation failed, it is probably that your system is missing some of the requirements listed here:
ftp://ftp.across.net/documentation/system_requirements_v63_en.pdf
and not because you are running a 64-bit operating system. Only a few old computers still run 32-bit systems today.

Good luck!

Hello Anna,

as you can see with the picture below, Across Translator Edition 6.3 (French) runs without problem (and without restriction) on a Windows 10 - 64 bits machine as mine.

The only problem I met once was with the CodeMeter software version.

Don't forget to open a CrossMarket account.

Hi Adrien and Bruno,
Thanks for your replies. It's good to hear that it should be possible. It seems like the problem is due to Microsoft Visual C++ 2012. It needs to be reinstalled, but my computer is having problems with it. I'm hoping to find the solution soon...
Best regards,
Anna
