Hi Basicchip,
Just tried to install Armbasic also on an older "Lab PC" running Windows10 32 bit. Installation worked properly but when starting the program I received the "blue box" message : "This App can not be executed on the PC. Apply to the the software developer to find a suitable version for your PC "
Is it intended by Coridium not to support Win32 anymore ( I found no installation prerequisites on the homepage) or is the rootcause again found in unforeseeable windows updates?
The installed Notepad works fine.

BASICtools is a Tcl file, and it uses FreeWrap as a runtime environment. About a year ago I started seeing issues of running 32bit apps on 64bit Win10. They would work, but would often pause for a couple seconds, and that was cured by switching to a 64 bit version.

I wasn't sure there were any 32bit machines out there anymore, especially running Win10. Well I guess there are. I will post a link to a 32bit version of BASICtools, in the next hour. And then also include a BASICtools32 in the installer.

32 bit version of BASICtools at

UPDATE --

SetupBASIC now installs this version of BASICtool32.exe along with the 64 bit version. So see the instructions below for installation of the 32 bit version

Thanks basicchip.
Now also my old PC is proudly controlling an ARM chip!

The proper way to install BASICtools on a 32 bit system now is to

1 - download and run normal setupBASIC.exe

2 - Open the desktop icon that is installed (right click on Properties)


3 - Change the Target value from BASICtools.exe to BASICtools32.exe
