    Hi Adamc91092506,

    We would like to know what exactly is the issue that you encountered while using 64 bit applications on your machine.

    Meanwhile, in order to get you up and running, here are the steps that you may try to install 32bit version of LR 4.4 on your machine.

    1. Download Lightroom 4.4 setup from here:-Adobe - Lightroom : For Windows : Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.4.1 : Thank You

    2. Run the setup, it would extract Lightroom 4.4.1 on your desktop. * don't run the Lightroom installer after extracting it.

         Most likely it would extract the setup on your desktop by default.

    3. Go to the following location and run "setup32.exe"

         C:\Users\(Username)\Desktop\Adobe\Photoshop Lightroom 4.4\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4

    Hope this would help, please feel free to share if this works and the reason why you were not able to use 64 bit versions.

    Thanks.
