IrfanView - Both 32-bit and 64-bit Versions Installed?

[Richard]

Hi,

I originally installed the 32-bit version of IrfanView a few months ago.  However, now I appear to have both 32-bit and 64-bit versions installed (instead of just one) after updating.  Any ideas?

Thanks.

Let us look into this.

Could the IrfanView problem be related to this issue that was recently fixed in 4.0.0.6 (2-Mar-2018)?

It seems as though I originally had just the 32-bit version of IrfanView installed.  Rather than updating the 32-bit version, PMPC downloaded the 64-bit version - so I ended up with a newly installed 64-bit version that was up-to-date but the 32-bit version was outdated still.  I think this might have been as a result of the bug that was recently fixed.

To resolve the issue, I updated PMPC to the latest version and uninstalled the 64-bit IrfanView.  Hopefully, just the 32-bit version will be updated going forward.

Yeah this should likely be fixed in 4.0.0.6
