Hi,

Sorry, I believe this is my first post on the forum, I have been using Pixinsight for several years and love it. All my computers have had a 64 bit OS since 64 bit OSes were available, so I have happily been running the 64 bit version of PixInsight since I got it. However, I recently got a cheap Windows 10 tablet computer to do some simple image processing (DBE, histogram transform, just to see what kind of data I have) during my 1hour+ long train commute. I had intended to replace the 32 bit version of Windows with a 64 bit version, as the hardware supports a 64 bit OS. However, the 32-bit UEFI/BIOS unfortunately prevents it and there are no workarounds (well there may be a workaround, but it is too geeky even for me).

I know the 32 bit version is unsupported and no longer developed - but I still would like to be able to use it for this simple use-case. I had saved the binary back when it was still available "just in case" but can't find the file anymore. Is there any way to still get access to old versions of PixInsight from the distributions page after I log in? I mean even if it doesn't work in the end, that's fine, I understand it's unsupported... but I'd love to at least try!

I anyone knows, would be great to hear!

Thank you,

Yannick
