Solution 1

to solve this problem go to project properties and then compile->advanced compile option
in 'Target CPU' combo select x86 and then press ok
now run the project it will run in 64 bit window also

Already in Target CPU x86 was selected....Even though CRRedist2005_x86 msi file showed error...
