That''s probably because it''s changing a .exe file and that''s normally what a virus can do.

any new os on a computer is a 64bit lol.... And by new I mean basically Vista and newer. If you have a PC or a full sized laptop you almost certainly have a 64bit operating system

Dear Admins,

i cant open the file.
it says:

"the version of the file isnt compatible with the running windows version. Open the system information to check if a x86 (32 bit) or a x64 (64 bit) version is needed"

I asked a friend of mine who has a master in programming but he told me to ask u guys because he cant fix it^^

Looking forward for information, Fichtenweg
