Hello everyone,

I’m writing a Python script for 3D Slicer that needs to be executed in a 32-bit Python version. However, as far as I know, there is no 32-bit version of 3D Slicer.

Does anyone have any ideas on how I could make this work?

Thanks!

We dropped 32-bit support many years ago. I would recommend to update your environment, or build a 32-bit Slicer package yourself, or communicate with 3D Slicer via slicerio Python package.
