Re: Can't Install ODBC 5.3.10 on Windows Server 2016

Ola,

There might be a bit of confusion about 32-bit applications and 32-bit Windows.
The 32-bit Windows 10 is only offered if upgraded from an older 32-bit Windows version. Otherwise it will go as 64-bit.
The 64-bit Windows is able to run 32-bit programs, but the directory mapping is different.
In 64-bit Windows the directory called System32 has 64-bit libraries (yes, that is not a mistake). The 32-bit legacy code is inside SysWow64.

Therefore, the initial problem that Brian mentioned might be because the wrong version of Visual C++ 2015 redistributable is installed. I see it mentions System32 and Program Files instead of SysWow64 and Program Files (x86). Therefore, it might require installing of the 64-bit redistributable.
