Will Captivate 9 be released in a 32 bit version? I can only see a 64 bit version to trial download.

    Doesn't look like it. The System Requirements page says Windows 32 bit is no longer supported.

    Update:

    Captivate 9 was originally released as a 64-bit-only product. However, good news – Adobe recently added a 32-bit version for Windows users.

    All versions (both Windows 32/64-bit and Mac) are now available on the Captivate 9 trials page as well as via the direct download links.

    This is fantastic news, thanks for the update. The 64-bit thing was proving a big obstacle to our organization. No longer!

    Rod's right. Only 64-bit version is supported.

    Wow... That's really too bad.   About 20 people in my company got Captivate monthly subscriptions last year so that we'd have access to new versions and upgrades, and now it appears that we're stuck on v.8. 

    Given that our system is unlikely to upgrade us all to 64-bit Windows any time in the immediate future, is there any reason that you can think of that we should keep our subscriptions active?   I'm not sure I see the value, but would appreciate any insight you might have. 

    Thanks ~

    Julia asked: ..."is there any reason that you can think of that we should keep our subscriptions active?"

    One reason I can think of is that since your Captivate 8 versions are on subscription, if you were to cancel the subscriptions then Cp8 would stop working for all of you and then NONE of you would be able to do any work.
