Outlook 07, Instant Search & Win XP x64

[zoom79]

Feedback item.

I'm running Outlook 07 Beta 12.0.4017.1006 on a Win XP x64 machine. As I
found out, neither the new Beta version nor the non-Beta version of Instant
Search are 64-bit compatible. I found this out when I followed the prompt
that popped up when I start Outlook, did the download & the install failed
for "different hardware platform." I then tried the non-beta version with
the same results and only then(probably stupidly) found the "no XP x64
version" note.

Despite this, I still get the prompt every time I load Outlook. Not
critical, just annoying.

Thanks the time you spend working to give us better products!

Which one?
This one:
You can disable this prompt using Outlook's Tools, Options, Other,
Advance Options dialog box if WDS is not installed.

Or the registry hack?

Did you try downloading the Windows XP x64 version of the release version of WDS 3.0?
