SUMMARY
The following table clearly shows that AmiBroker Professional 32 bit runs on EVERY Windows version (BOTH 32 and 64-bit) and with every data plugin. 64-bit version of AmiBroker runs solely on 64-bit versions of Windows and only with limited number of data sources due to lack of data vendors' API support for 64-bit technology.
