I downloaded the program and I get the following error:

This version of C:\Users*****\Desktop\Windows_x86_64\ctrtool.exe is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running. Check your computer's system information and then contact the software publisher.

I'm using Windows 10 32 bit

Yeah, sorry. There's only 64 bit executables in the release download.

I can add some 32 bit executables later.

At least 32-Bit Windows executables should be easy enough to add. Could make some quick builds.
For Linux generally compiling from source is recommended. I have switched to Arch Linux so builds for that would probably not run on most other distros because most of them use stale sw.

Yeah, 32-bit builds for both makerom and ctrtool would be much appreciated.
My Windows toolchain (TDM-GCC) errors out with 'struct st size not known'.

Meh, this issue is old.

Anyway, you can install MinGW-W64 (the name sounds like it's 64 bit only but there are 32 bit versions too). It is better than the regular MinGW anyway (imho). It should build fine with it.
There are no 64 bit versions because 32 bit PCs are rare nowdays and ctrtool and makerom require a huge amount of RAM if used with very big games.

Well, it's better to rise an issue from the dead rather than creating a new one
Anyways, thanks for the tip. You might even wanna close this now that it's fixed

Does this still only work on 64-bit??? I really need it for Windows 10 32-bit.

It does work as 32 bit build but you quickly reach the 4 GB RAM limit with it. I can make 32 bit builds but would not recommend them because of this. Games around 2 GB make it run out of mem already.

Besides that there is currently a RomFS verify problem which makes it hang/loop forever. I was too lazy to look into it yet. I thought maybe @jakcron jwould have noticed it already. Well, then i must fix it.

For those of you that need a 32-bit version in order to even use the tools, there you go:
https://github.com/Ich73/Project-CTR-WindowsBuilds/releases
But you do reach the RAM limit quickly and there is no guarantee it works 100%.

CTRTool is now released with 32-bit Windows builds. https://github.com/3DSGuy/Project_CTR/releases/tag/ctrtool-v1.0.0
