Does not start on Win11

nimble install https://github.com/Araq/nimedit worked but when starting nimedit following error apears: could not load: SDL2.dll (bad format; library may be wrong architecture)

SDL2.dll is in the nim\bin path.

Last time I ran nimedit on windows I had to place the dll in the same directory as the binary.

Yes, I have tried it already in the same directory.

I downloaded a new version of SDL2.dll and placed it in the same directory. Same result ...

grafik

After removing all "SDL2.dll" the error is correct: grafik

32bit vs 64bit problem?

32bit SDL2.dll and SDL2_ttf.dll was the reason for the error bad format; library may be wrong. With 64bit no error but nothing happens: no window opened, no process started, no exception.

Gonna see if I can get it running on my windows machine this weekend.
