    Ok, ...

    [Quote]
    ZoomIt64.exe is for x64
    Zoomit64a.exe is for ARM64
    [End Quote]

    ...so I guess 'Zoomit.exe' is for 32-bit (x86) systems.

    [Question]
    For my 64-bit (non-ARM) Windows system,
    and since I need to initiate ZoomIt for each Windows user on the computer,
    should I be clicking on "ZoomIt.exe" while logged in for each user,
    or should I be clicking on "ZoomIt64.exe"?

    [Your Answer at this time may be...]
    "Why don't you try 'both', (with the 'Options' window
    check-box 'Run ZoomIt when Windows starts' checked,)
    and then you tell us!"

    Uh... Okay. I'll be back. ... , if I remember.

    o..o
