32 bit stopped working in windows 7?
Mother in her infinite wisdom has a 64 bit windows 7 gaming machine. She ran a virus scan last night and deleted some viruses, or so she says. Now nothing 32 bit will run at all. So now I am getting all kinds of whining because her chinese MMOs do not work.
Reformatting is not an option since we are on an internet service with severe speed/bandwidth limits. All the updates that would have to happen plus the software replacements would use our entire cap for the next couple months. So need to know how to fix this. Obviously the computer in general works since I am posting this from that computer using the 64 bit IE. So just need to get 32 bit working again.
System restore seems to not be an option as the geniuses that designed 64 bit windows 7 wrote most of the control panel functions to be 32 bit so I cannot get that open.
