    You can do this without issue. SEP 32bit will install on both 32/64 bit however 64bit will only install on 64 bit

    It isn't possible to install the 32-bit build on a 64-bit OS. You have to install the 64-bit version. If the SEPM (manager) is missing the 64-bit instal package from Admin > Install Packages > Client Install Packages, then either something is broken,

    Hi,

    Let me clear it, it's not possible to install 32 bit client package on 64 bit client OS & vice versa.

    Through SEPM can export both the packages as per requirement & deploy it respectively.

    It is not possible to install 32 bit client package 64 bit OS. If you try to install 32 bit installation package on 64 bit OS, you will receive an error as "This installation package is not supported by this processor type. Contact your product vendor". So you have to use only 64 bit installation package on 64 bit OS. But after installation SEP will work under 32 native mode in 64 bit OS.

    Folks,

    It is possible. Some software may not allow it but overall it is built into Windows to allow this functionality.
