Built .exe on 32bit system (windows 7), and it won't run on 64bit system (windows7). This verison of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running.

I built .exe from my current (32bit) station, but when I try to run it on a 64bit station, I get the error message "This verison of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running."

Both stations have LabVIEW 2014 and RTE2014.

 

Thank you for any advice in advance.

I am building x32 and x64 bit LabVIEW programs to run on Win7 x64 and have no issue running either. The trick is to have the proper runtime engine on the system. So for x32 bit code you must use the 32 bit verion of the run time engine and for x64 bit LabVIEW programs you need the 64 bit runtime engine. You can also do it with either LabVIEW program installed.

My inclination is to believe the Error Message, that an Executable built on a 32-bit Windows 7 system will not run on 64-bit Windows 7.  I assume you know that you can (and probably should) run 32-bit LabVIEW on 64-bit Windows 7 ...

I have no problem building an application using Labview 32-bit and running it on a Win 64-bit system. Be certain to build your application with LV 32-bit and use the 32-bit runtime on the deployment system as well.
