Host agent fails to install on Windows 11

[mackp1967]

Describe the bug
When try to run " irm http://10.0.2.170:7655/install-host-agent.ps1 | iex" on Admin powershell it would just exit with now error. So ran it after " PowerShell -NoExit" I would get this error.

An update in 4.32.0 changes the Windows installer’s architecture detection. The new install-host-agent.ps1 checks RuntimeInformation, CIM/WMI, and processor env vars, falls back to heuristics, and accepts an explicit override via -Arch amd64|arm64|386 (or PULSE_ARCH). The 4.32.0 server image includes Windows binaries for amd64, arm64, and 386. Please rerun the installer from your 4.32.0 server (irm http://:7655/install-host-agent.ps1 | iex) and confirm it reports Download Architecture: amd64. If PowerShell still reports something unexpected, rerun with -Arch amd64 and share the output so the diagnostics show what PowerShell is returning.

I have updated to 4.32.1
