Setting up WinPDT for 64-bit Windows


WinPDT cannot run from the Program Files (x86) WinPRISM folder. Trying to run it from this location will cause it to display an error stating that it is not compatible with 64 bit operating systems.
Create a folder in C://Program Files called WinPRISM.
From C://Program Files (x86)/WinPRISM copy the follow files:

  • WinPDT.exe

  • WPPdt.dll

  • WPComm.dll

  • GCL52FW.dll

Paste these files in the foler you created (C://Program Files/WinPRISM). Make sure you copy to the new folder. Do not move them.
Create a shortcut on your Desktop to C://Program Files/WinPRISM/WinPDT.exe
