Getting a 32 bit install on a 64 bit system

Basically I need to be able to setup a 32 bit install onto a thumb drive so I can use it on a computer with 32 bit windows (I don't have admin rights). So I need to get this installed from my 64 bit windows computer on which I do have admin rights.

Any ideas?

Check out PortableApps, they have GIMP bundled for use on a thumb drive.

You can install any 32-bit app on a 64-bit machine without problems, so unsure of the issue here.

Any ideas?

The gimp installer detects and chooses which one to install.

The correct way to go, for Gimp on a thumb drive, is use the portable version - look for portableapps.com You can use this on a regular machine as well.

Installing a regular Gimp to a thumb drive will leave a trail of a Gimp profiles across the machines it runs on.

The regular installer contains both 32 and 64 bit versions. To install a 32 bit Gimp in a 64 bit Windows OS append the switch -32 to the end of the installer.

ie. gimp-2.8.14-setup-1.exe -32

One peculiarity, Gimp is not installed to the 'Program Files (X86)' but to the 64 bit 'Program Files' unless you make an effort and use the customise option, bottom left of the Gimp setup dialog.

So in your case, point it at the thumbdrive and install there. Gimp is naturally portable, copy the whole '\GIMP 2' folder tree, to the 32 bit machine, make your own shortcut. No admin privilege might be a problem.
