    Hi @Alphonse Okossi FT ,

    Thanks for posting your query.

    Unfortunately Azure Data Catalog registration tool is a 64 bit windows application and only support on 64 bit windows OS. Since your windows OS is 32 bit, it is throwing the error. Possible options are either to use a 64 bit Windows OS machine or to use Azure Data catalog portal.

    Hope this info helps.
