The Sierra Chart installer installs both the 32 and 64-bit versions. So either of these can be used. Although only one can be used at a time though. Within the C:\SierraChart\ folder (default installation folder) you will have the following two executable files: SierraChart.exe and SierraChart_64.exe. There are shortcuts for these executables on your desktop. Running the SierraChart.exe file, will start the 32 bit version of Sierra Chart. Running the SierraChart_64.exe, will start the 64 bit version of Sierra Chart. The 32-bit version of Sierra Chart is compiled for 32-bit CPU architectures. The 64-bit version of Sierra Chart is compiled for 64-bit CPU architectures. The 64-bit version requires a 64-bit operating system like Windows 7 and higher. You can tell which one you are running by selecting Help >> About on the menu. After installing or updating Sierra Chart, if you are running a 64-bit version of Windows, then the 64-bit version will be run in most cases. When starting Sierra Chart from the desktop shortcut or Start Menu, the 64-bit version will only be run if using the shortcut on the desktop with _64 in the text label. This shortcut will run the SierraChart_64.exe executable file in the Sierra Chart installation folder which usually is C:\SierraChart. When starting Sierra Chart with the desktop shortcut without _64 in the name, the 32-bit version will be run. Software Download: Difference Between 32 and 64-bit Versions |

Keep it simple... Just go to Global Settings >> General Settings >> General 4 and select Always Run 64 Bit Version. The next time you start up SC it should launch the 64-bit version automatically. https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/GeneralSettings.html#AlwaysRun64BitVersion |
