I have an older design program that I need to open the help package. I found this page at MS.com and tried downloading an executable for my Win8 machine. But it seems this will only run on a 32 bit OS and I'm running 64 bits. Any suggestions?

Install a 32 bit virtual machine ?
fbreader can do .chm files.

Hmm, I googled your subject and it produced
But you didn't follow the link to see if a 64 bit version was available. It is not. This is the same page I found and at the top it says,
System Tip This article applies to a different version of Windows than the one you are using. Content in this article may not be relevant to you. Visit the Windows 8 Solution Center
Oddly enough they have a windows 8 download link, but not 64 bit which is what I need even though the "system tip" fails to explain that.
Elsewhere there are instructions for installing the 32 bit executable under the 64 bit OS. I'll give that a try when I get a chance.
Thanks anyway.

I actually did and got a page with checkboxes so one can download 32bit or 64bit or both versions but didn't try to download. Now that I tried at first nothing downloaded but I guess that's Microsoft hating on Chrome. Retried with IE and both Windows8-RT-KB917607-x64.msu and Windows8-RT-KB917607-x86.msu both downloaded.
I can see the check boxes in FF, but nothing downloads. Obviously MS is still fighting a battle from the 90's.

BTW, I got it downloaded and installed. Thanks
