When you install android studio you will see it has a separate launcher for 32 and 64 bit. You can run the one that is for 32 bit PCs.

In the bin folder, double click the "Studio" icon and not the "Studio 64 " icon,

Not in the download available at treehouse. It has options available for Java, but not for android studio.

As I said, If you download the android studio available in the downloads section, and extract it you will see in its bin folder a launcher for a 64 bit and another one for a 32 bit system both in the same file. You can use the 32 bit one.

MUZ140737 Kundai Kudyarawanza , on the bin folder you'll see 2 options... studio and studio64 or something called similar. Since you want 32 bit select the "studio" not the 64 one. I hope this helped.
