NetWeaver Developer Studio NWDS 7.2 on Windows 7 Prof x64

Hello

 

neither installing NWDS 7.2. from CD nor directly from https://nwds.sap.com/swdc/downloads/updates/netweaver/nwds/ce/index.html does work on an x64 version of Windows 7.

It seems the bundled VS-redistributable is only shipped for x86 systems which breaks the installer.

 

I know the prerequisites explicitly state that only x86 systems are supported but... WTF!

ALL new notebooks and workstations with a decent amount of RAM are shipped on x64.

 

Is there any way to get it running under x64?

 

Thanks!
