With several programs and now in trying to unsip a file with pilots in it, I get this message: Re-install the module Wowexec.exe in System 32... I know this is Windows on windows for 16 bits apps, but I don't know why this suddenly started to show up and how to control it, ie. turn it on when I need to use these programs.Anyone has info on this? I searched the Net many times but did not find anything. Thanks.
