DeveloperSDK Download Issues

I have downloaded the RokuSDK and unzipped the file, but it is set for windows 32bit and the computer I use is a windows 64bit and it will only open quickly then close. What can I do so I can start developing Roku channels for channels I operate outside of Roku?

What do you mean "it is set for windows 32bit", and where are you getting this information? It shouldn't make any difference whether you're on a 32-bit or 64-bit Windows OS. Which version of WIndows are you using, and how did you un-zip the file? And what is it you are trying to open, the top-level un-zipped RokuSDK directory, or a particular file/folder within the directory, and what program are you trying to open it with?

I just downloaded and un-zipped it on my 64-bit WIndows 7 machine using Windows Explorer (right-click>Extract All...>Extract, and everything appears okay).

The only consideration I'm aware of with the SDK and Windows is that the un-zipped folder contains some subfolders and files within that are set to read-only mode, so before doing anything with them, reset the read-only attribute of the top-level RokuSDK folder using Windows Explorer: right-click>Properties>click on the Read Only box to clear it>click OK>click Apply changes to this folder, subfolders and files>click OK.
