When running the install program it says-Not a valid win32 application

My pc is a couple years old, finally got it up and running. After downloading the setup program and trying to run it, I get the "not a valid win32 application" message. I'm just not pc literate to know what that means. Please help.

Have you had a look at this troubleshooting page? iTunes: Windows reports that iTunesSetup.exe is not a "valid Win32 application"

That's a Windows PC issue. What is the Mac OS X Lion issue? In other words what are you posting in the Lion forums about?

Error when installing VMM - %1 is not a valid Win32 application

Hi all
I'm attemping an install of SCVMM and despite installing all prerequisites I'm faced with the following when I launch the installer/disc and click 'Install':
"Error starting the Virtual Machine Manager Setup Wizard. %1 is not a valid Win32 application"
this error is the proceeded with another:
"Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable was not successfully installed. The selected Virtual Machine Manager feature cannot be installed without this prerequisite. Retry setup or manually install Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable
from Microsoft Download Center."
The latter package is already installed and I have re-downloaded and re-installed as well to no avail. All .Net packages are installed too.
I'm running a Windows Server 2012 R2 x64 virtual machine in a HyperV host (HyperV Server 2012) and have navigated the disc and launched the "SetupVMM.exe" located in the amd64 directory as I realise the above Win32 error points to a x86 application
- still no joy, the same errors!
I have tried the installer in a VMWare 2012 server with the same error and on a physical Windows 7 machine again same error so this makes me think I'm either missing something basic or have overlooked something seems the environment doesn't seem to make
a difference (although obviously not attempted a x86 environment but SCVMM is listed as x86 or x64).
This is for a lab test and personal experience before production so I realise running SCVMM within a virtual machine that is hosted on the same hypervisor isn't good practice - but it's a start :)
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

Are you installing directly from the ISO? If so, you can try with a new ISO in case this is broken. Also make sure your machine is joined to the domain and that you are executing the setup in the context of a local administrator.
Eventually, try to copy the ISO to local disk and run setup from there.

ITunes set up gives an error message saying not a "valid win32 application"

I am using Windows 7 and trying to download iTunes, but when I try to open the iTunes set up it gives an error message saying that it is not a "valid win32 application". It does the same for downloading quicktime. I have no idea what this means or what to do about it.

That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

When I try to download iTunes it says "not a valid Win32 application"

the whole thing it says is "C:\Documents and Settings\Evie Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IES\OLYFO9IV\iTunesSetup[1].exe is not a vaild Win32 application." Please help me!

It usually means one of two things
1) A virus has infected somehow after it was downloaded
2) It didn't download properly
The first is easy to fix. Go get an anti-virus program. AVG is a good free one that's quite good.
The second just means you have to redownload it again.. and turn off any download accelerators.

IPodSetup.exe "Not a Valid Win32 Application"

We have a PC running Windows XP SP2, and when I download the iPod Updater we receive an error when we try to run the executable:
iPodSetup.exe is Not a Valid Win32 Application.
My windows is up to date, and I've cleaned out my temporary files. Has anyone else has this happen?

Hurrah! just downloaded it!
I ran a search on pc of all files for "ipod" and deleted all of the previous downloads of the latest updater we have been trying to use, including the ones i had sent to the recycle bin and then downloaded again, it did the proper download thing again (progress bar). selected run instead of save and Hey Presto it worked.
Good luck

743 download will not run - msg says it is "not a valid Win32 application"

We have ipod nanos which we use itunes with. We just got the newest nano which requires the 743 version, so I downloaded and saved it, but when I tried to run it, I got the message that it is "not a valid Win32 application". the new download is in my documents folder, but will not run. I tried going on to itunes to troubleshoot, but it told me to delete the download and try again. the only itunes I could find was the older version I am using. If I delete that, it will erase all my existing music, correct??? I DON'T want to loose my music again (been thru that when getting new computer). I did go to my documents and erase the 743 download in there, but when I tried to download it again, I got a message saying I already have it, and it shows up in my documents again.
PS I tried to back up my music on my flash drive, but it would not transfer to my new computer, so I have no backup. I need to install the new version to get music on my new nano. Any suggestions??? Getting frustrated. Thanks! Penny http://www.theallensisters.com

TS3212 iTunes64(1).exe is not a valid Win32 application

Hi When I try to install iTunes I get an error message the iTunes64(1).exe is not a valid Win32 application - can anyone advise? I had previously had iTunes installled but removed program

Doublechecking. In the course of your troubleshooting to date have you worked through the following document?
iTunes: Windows reports that "iTunesSetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application"

"adobe .ai or .eps file" is not a valid Win32 application

I'm on Windows XP and can't open Illustrator .AI or .EPS files by double clicking them. When I do I get the error "...is not a valid Win32 application". I must go to file>open or drag the file icon to the AI icon. I checked some other threads, but had no luck. I did try going to control panel>folder options>file types>opens with. But that did not work. Photoshop and Acrobat files open fine when I double click them.
thanks

As I wrote many times, the best cure in such situations is to entirely delete any existing references to a file type or program from that list, then create the rules again from scratch. Nothing as refreshing as starting with a clean slate. In addition, check, whether other programs are having a hold on certain associations and/or are simply flooding your context menu with nonsense stuiff. Tools such as Nero burning software, various packer tools and a colorful array of other software have the bad habit of doing that...

Itunessetup.exe is not a valid win32 application?

I am trying to install the newest version of iTunes, but no matter what I try, the same error message comes up and won't let me install -- itunessetup.exe is not a valid win32 application.
What do I do?
Thanks.

Espero que alguien hable español ya que yo tengo el mismo problema. Y hasta el dia de hoy no he podido utilizar mi ipod. Gracias anticipadas...hmc

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 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"
