    Cannot drag and drop 64 bit windows 10 into 32 bit application


    Long story short.

    Had a machine become useless due to certificates.

    Dusted off a Windows 10 machine, 64 bit. Version 1909. It's an upgraded Windows 8.1 box.

    Currently stripped of most of the excessive software that is usually bundled with windows, only remaining items are the unremovables.

    Only programs that are user installed are Firefox (64), Thunderbird (64), and Adobe Audition (32).

    Double clicking on an audio file works, Windows launches Audition and the file loads.

    Clicking more files loads them into that instance of Audition.

    Cannot drag and drop a file into Audition.

    Works just fine if I drag the files into Media Player.

    What am I overlooking?

    :)

    Installing 64-bit software in a 32-bit machine Windows 10

    64 bit applications cannot work on a 32 bit version of Windows 10. You will need to migrate to the 64 bit version of Windows 10 in order to run the application:

    Cannot drag and drop 64 bit windows 10 into 32 bit application

    How do I install IE 32 bit and/or switch from 64 bit to 32 bit?

    Windows 10: Internet Explorer

    • You need to have Windows 10 64-bit(x64) to use this feature
    • To check:
      • Click on Windows Key
      • Click on Settings
      • Click on System
      • On left panel click on About
      • On right panel check system type:
        • System Type: 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor
          • That means you have Windows 10 64-bit
        • System Type: 32-bit operating system, x86-based processor
          • That means you have Windows 10 32-bit
    • Internet Explorer
      • 32-bit(x86):
        • C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplorer.exe
      • 64-bit(x64):
        • C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplorer.exe
    Note:
    • You cannot switch between Windows 10 32-bit to 64-bit. you need to re-install Windows 10 64 bit.
    • To download Windows 10 64-bit:
      Microsoft - "Windows 10 - Download tool now"

    • Cannot drag and drop 64 bit windows 10 into 32 bit application 7b23dd14-23cd-4459-bfc9-5fe838d21118.png

    • If you have Windows 10 64-bit, you can run any application which supports 64-bit and as well as 32-bit
