Oops, I had a brain freeze. I don't see the option in Windows either, it's in the Mac settings in LC 8.1. Now that you've drawn my attention to it, I see it's reversed in LC 9.0.2 which says that 32-bit is deprecated. So, no problem.

Thanks for the correction. I need more sleep.

In what LC version do you see that option?

Btw, when the Mac OS X 64-bit option was still experimental i used it a lot and 
did not run into any problem with my apps.

Standalone settings shows the Windows 64-bit option as "experimental." How 
experimental is it, and has anyone had any issues?

A little story: I was just contacted by a client I did some work for 15 years 
ago. She's been running the same app all this time, but a while back she lost 
the ability to run it on her OS X Mac at home (the app was built for OS 9) so 
she wants it updated for OS X. The ancient Windows app still runs on her 
Windows 10 box at work.

Since I'm going to rebuild it for OS X, we're going to update the Windows 
version as well. I'm wondering if I should go ahead and use 64-bit for that to 
ensure the app will still work 15 years into the future.

It's astounding to me that a LiveCode app built with MC 2.7 is still viable in 
today's software environment. You have to applaud the team's incredible 
dedication to backward compatibility.
