What a strange assumption.
The naming of the Windows Sigil installation files has not changed. It is the way it always has been. This is the very first report we've received of anyone being confused as to what the "x64" meant, so I think we'll stick to what is working -- rather than confuse even more with a change in procedure. Besides, there should be absolutely no problem with installing the 32-bit version of Sigil on a 64-bit Windows system. People, including myself, do it all the time. It's the reverse that won't work (and the installer won't let you do).
I'm not really striving for a totally noob-proof environment here. Neophytes SHOULD have to do some research before downloading/installing free software from the internet. They should be cautious, ask questions, and do some due-diligence first!
