Computing device configured for installing an application
First Claim
1. A computing device configured for installing an application, comprising:
- a processor;
a memory in electronic communication with the processor;
instructions stored in the memory, the instructions being executable to;
determine whether an application instruction length is one of a first instruction length and a second instruction length, wherein the first instruction length is shorter than the second instruction length;
run an application installer on the computing device in a first instruction length mode if the application instruction length is the first instruction length, and if the application instruction length is the second instruction length, then;
determine whether an operating system instruction length is one of the first instruction length and the second instruction length;
disable a compatibility module on the computing device if the operating system instruction length is the second instruction length; and
run the application installer on the computing device in a second instruction length mode;
wherein the application installer and the application instruction length are received from a second computing device.

Abstract
A computing device configured for installing an application is described. The computing device includes a processor and instructions stored in memory that is in electronic communication with the processor. The computing device determines if an application instruction length is a first instruction length or a second instruction length. The first instruction length is shorter than the second instruction length. If the application instruction length is the first instruction length, then the computing device runs an application installer in a first instruction length mode. If the application instruction length is the second instruction length, then the computing device determines if an operating system instruction length is the first instruction length or the second instruction length. If the operating system instruction length is the second instruction length, then the computing device disables a compatibility module.
