Win 7
I have had Air installed for at least a year. I was updating a separate program and something went awry with the update. All of a sudden most of my 32bit programs would not work and had to be reinstalled.
When I tried programs that work with Air, I get the cannot find the Application Descriptor error. The programs I use are Less Parser, Crunch(another less parser), and Tweetdeck.
I cannot uninstall Air with Windows, I cannot update it, and as you see below I cannot install Air applications. I uninstalled Crunch and tried to re-install it. I am hoping there is a way through this.
