[Yahor Radtsevich (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-2720?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12779378#comment-12779378 ] 

Yahor Radtsevich commented on JBIDE-2720:
-----------------------------------------

Current status is that VPE got experimental support of win64 in JBoss Tools 4.1.0.Beta1. This means win64 XULRunner is not included in JBoss Tools update sites, and users have to [install it manually|http://docs.jboss.org/tools/whatsnew/vpe/vpe-news-4.1.0.Beta1.html].

Because of the R6034 error now we should choose between three options:
* leave this support to be as is
* include win64 XULRunner in JBoss Tools, and enable it by default (allow to disable with a command line key)
* include win64 XULRunner in JBoss Tools, but disable it by default (allow to enable with a command line key)

> If you use a 64  bit jdk, the XULRunner  parts of JBoss Tools does not load.
> We should look into providing a xulrunner for windows 64 bit.
