Description

From this page: https://damus.io/notedeck/install/
Installing this version on Windows 11 - 64-bit
Intel: DamusNotedeckInstaller_v0.7.1.exe

Error during installation:
Unable to execute file:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Notedeck\notedeck.exe
CreateProcess failed; code 216.
This version of %1 is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running. Check your computer's system information and then contact the software publisher.

Claude assumption:
Error code 216 typically means a 64-bit executable was installed to the 32-bit Program Files (x86) directory, or there's an architecture mismatch (e.g., an ARM64 binary on an x86 machine). Worth mentioning in your issue what Windows version and CPU architecture you're on.
