I have some Windows 7 computers that are not SP1 (these are machines dedicated to specific software and can't have the SP1 update so I'm stuck with them). I'm trying to set up FreeFileSync to automatically sync folders but because I don't have SP1, every time FreeFileSync starts it gives a dialog box informing me that since I don't have SP1, the 32bit version is going to be used instead. That's fine, but the problem is that if nobody is there to hit "ok," the batch won't start. And since this batch is intended to run at 1 am when nobody is using the system, it presents a problem.

Is there any way to either bypass this pop up, or otherwise force a 32bit only install?

You can start the 32-bit version directly:
C:\Program Files\FreeFileSync\Bin\FreeFileSync_Win32.exe
