WD (B2) Unable to Install

[Guest]

Dear all,
I have downloaded the installer for Windows Defender (Beta 2), which the
file name is "WindowsDefenderX64.msi" but i'm unable to install as i run the
installer the message show "This installation package is not supported by
this processor type. Contact your product vendor." What is this means? What
should i do next?

Hello Leonard,

The 64-bit version is for 64-bit OS versiºns. Is named Windows Defender64.msi
The 32-bit version is for the 99% of the users is named Windows Defender.msi

The X64 is the 64bit installer - unless you have the 64bit XP Pro (which most
do not have) you will wªnt "WindowsDefender.msi"

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=435bfce7-da2b-4a6a-afa4-f7f14e605a0d is the 32 bit version (x86)

For the benefit of the community reading this post, please rate the pºst.

I hope this post is helpful.

Let us know how it works ºut.

Hi Leonard,

Your most welcome, enjoy the file

XP 64 is generally only for diehard techies, or systems so-equipped by the
OEM who can dig up the drivers for the system as sold--drivers are somewhat
hard to come by.

I just wanted to jump in here and say thanks! I have had Defender installed
for a while now and when I got the notification to upgrade, I was getting all
the way through the process and then getting this same prompt. I am off to
try again! This site is always so helpful!
