I downloaded VMware-player-5.0.0-812388.exe which is supposed to be:
VMware Player for Windows 32-bit and 64-bit.exe Installation file for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows
I started the installation process and responded to the UAC prompt. Pressed Next and was then asked to pick a folder to install into with the default being:
C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware Player\
This indicates that the installer was about to install a 32Bit version.
How do I get the installer to install the 64Bit version?
