Details

There need to be win64 xpi builds made for the simulator. There are simulators for all others and they do not work on win64 unless you are for some odd reason running a 32 bit version of firefox.
Alex, do you think we should start doing this now? Also, should we update our simulator startup path to allow win32 version to run for 64-bit Firefox if it's installed?

Given that's already hard to get linux32 build, no. But yes if that's related to startup path code, we should fix that instead.

Hum. It doesn't seem to be because of the binary path, we only consider win32 on windows: http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/devtools/webide/modules/simulator-process.js#27

I tried it on windows 7 SP1 64bits, very last firefox nightly (41.0a1 (2015-05-27)) and very last simulator 3.0 (20150526) and it works fine here. Jamie, are you also on Windows 8? Or may be I have something installed on my Windows that ships these missing DLL...
Firefox OS is not being worked on
