The FF 3.6.13 install download fails - "not a valid win32 app"?

I downloaded the latest FF installation (3.6.13) saving it to a local file. The file fails to execute and displays the following message ".../Firefox Setup 3.6.13.exe is not a valid Win32 application. I tried running the download instead of saving it and received the same message.

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
Are you on Vista? If so, be sure to use the "Run As Administrator" option on everything you execute when you initiate the installation.
If you are on XP, make sure you are logged into an account with full local administrative rights.
Otherwise, try a clean uninstall:

When I try to install Firefox with the 6.0 setup, it says it's not a valid win32 application, this is on windows xp any way to fix?

It is an oldish computer running windows XP, moving to firefox since I used it on my laptop and wanted to put it on this computer. I ran the setup and it says it is not a valid win32 application and closes, well i say close, it barey opens. i also tried saving the setup and runnig it that way but that failed as well. I might just download an older version of firefox, but I'd love to use the latest one.

It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.
Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.
See "Disable virus scanning in Firefox preferences - Windows"

HT1926 I followed the troubleshoot for iTunes setup.exe is not a valid win32 app; even uninstalled QTime; reinstalled QT; then tried itunes ; no success any ideas? Windows IE8 version on PC

I followed the troubleshoot for iTunes and get message the iTunes setup.exe is not a valid Win32 application. I remove QuickTime and reinstalled QT, then tried iTunes install with no success. Any ideas?

Perhaps try downloading and saving a copy of the installer to a different (32-bit) PC. Copy the iTunesSetup.exe installer to an external hard-drive, or a large-enough thumb drive or burn it to a CD-R. Carry the installer back to your PC, copy the installer to your hard drive. (Don't run the install from the ExHD, thumb or CD-R.) Start the install by doubleclicking the iTunesSetup.exe file.

Hi,
If you have security software (antivirus, firewall etc.) you can try to temporarily disable it for a few minutes, visit a safe site (e.g. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird), download and check. Please also see [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firewalls#Firewall_pitfalls this].
If it works you can then try deleting all existing instances of Firefox and its related processes/files in all the different configuration modules/areas of the security software like process monitoring, sub/spawned process control, virtualization, HIPS etc., in addition to the security software's main configuration panel. Instead create new fully allowed/trusted rules for Firefox + its related processes in all the different modules/panels - a genuine/original Firefox installer as well as all the installed EXEs (Application) and DLLs (Application extension) are digitally signed by Mozilla Corporation (right-click > Properties > Digital Signatures). Even otherwise, some security software may also ask again when Firefox and/or its sub processes are started, and you may be able to allow/trust at that time. Please see [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firewalls this].

HT1926 I am trying to install iTunes on a windows 7/64 OS. The 32 bit version said that I need the 64bit version. the 64 bit version says that it is not a valid 32 bit installation. How can I fix this??

I am trying to install iTunes on a windows 7/64 OS. the 32 bit version said that I needed the 64 bit version. The 64 bit version syas that it is not a valid Win32 application. How do I get around this problem??

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

Scanstate.exe from USMT 5.0 from Windows 8.1 ADK fails on Windows XP with "%1 is not a valid Win32 application"

We started to test our Windows XP SP3 (32-bit) to Windows 7 migration zero-touch task sequence in ConfigMgr 2012 R2 and we can't get past the following error from the "Capture User State" step running on XP...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To troubleshoot, we tried running the x86 version of scanstate.exe (from USMT from the Windows 8.1 ADK) manually by just double clicking on it on a few Windows XP SP3 systems and we get a similar error as seen below...
So, we thought maybe USMT from our Windows 8.1 ADK install maybe somehow corrupt, but downloading and installing it again results in the same error, so it does not seem to be a file corruption issue. The x64 version of scanstate.exe works
fine on 64-bit OS's, its just Windows XP SP3 (32-bit) we are seeing this error.
Has anyone successfully using scanstate.exe from USMT 5.0 from the Windows 8.1 ADK successfully to capture user state from a Windows XP SP3 (32-bit) system?
Regards,
JJ

Windows 8.1 ADK comes with a newer version of USMT (NOT 5.0) and crashes. I learned this today the hard way. I hope Windows 8.0 ADK's loadstate.exe works for restoring to a 8.1 machine.
Yesterday i used Windows Easy Transfer to move from XP to 7, and then re-did the backup in 7 so it would be compatible with 8.1, and it only restores files, not settings.
So i will test USMT 5.0 in this same scenario, because i have 30 machines to change to newer machines with 8.1

Why do I get the message "not a valid Win32 application"?

When I right click to install the program, I get a message that says "not a valid Win32 application". I don't know what this means or what to do. Can anyone help me?

I'm sorry, I want to download the trial version of Lightroom 4. It copies it into my Downloads folder. Then I click on "Lightroom_4_LS11". That is when the message comes up that says: Not a valid Win32 application."
I really appreciate your trying to help me here.

Cant install QuickTimeInstaller.exe or iTunesSetup.exe and IE9 SmartScreen Filter reports the program is not commonly downloaded and is not signed by its author. I run it anyway, but "is not a valid Win32 application". Tried Firefox

I followed the Article TS1406 (recommended solution) on both a Windows 7 OS and an Apple OS, tried Safari and Firefox, tried using 'Upgrade ITunes' button on my old version of iTunes, then uninstalled ITunes, then QuickTime, now can't install either because I'm getting the same error message when I download and choose Run > 'not a valid Win32 application'. On IE9, the SmartScreen Filter returns a warning that the file could harm my computer because it is not commonly downloaded. I tried downloading it from other internet sources, but that's risky, and anyway, it's still causing the same errors. What else is there to try? If I can't find a solution, I can't use my new Iphone 5

It's still pointing to the installers getting damaged during the downloads.
Perhaps try downloading and saving a copy of the installer to a different PC. (If you're on a 32-bit Windows system, try to download on a different 32-bit Windows system.) Copy the iTunesSetup.exe installer to an external hard-drive, or a large-enough thumb drive or burn it to a CD-R. Carry the installer back to your PC, copy the installer to your hard drive. (Don't run the install from the ExHD, thumb or CD-R.) Start the install by doubleclicking the iTunesSetup.exe file.

When i downloaded itunes and try to launch the program it says a installed component is not installed. What does that mean?

When i downloaded itunes and try to launch the program it says a installed component is not installed. What does that mean?

Just in case the component being referenced is not part of iTunes but is rather part of one of the other related programs, it might be worth trying a complete uninstall/reinstall of iTunes and related componentry, as per the following troubleshooting document:
