To enable 32-bit applications on your 64-bit Windows operating system, you'll need to configure Internet Information Services (IIS) appropriately. By default, IIS runs in 64-bit mode on a 64-bit OS, but you can change this for specific application pools using the built-in WOW64 (Windows-on-Windows 64-bit) compatibility layer.
