Not a Valid Win32 Application Error on Windows XP

Hi Zac,

This problem of yours may be because program.exe file is for 64bit version of Windows. If that is the case, then only possible solution is to run you program.exe file on the 64bit Windows OS.

Otherwise it may be corrupted due to some errors or problems, try to fix it by removing it completely and replacing with newer file. This can be done by completely uninstalling and then reinstalling the program.

For worse, your program.exe can be virus or malware. If it the case, try scanning your file with antivirus and verify that it is not an infected file. 

Hope this helps!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
