I have a 32-bit Windows 7 pc. Tried downloading Audacity’s latest version, but it failed, asking whether I need a 32 or 64-bit version. Is there a 32-bit version of Audactiy’s latest release?
Windows 7, Audacity ® 1.3.12-beta (Unicode)
Thanks for showing me how to download Audacity’s 32 bit version. But I still have a problem exporting an edited sound track. When I try, I get this error message:
Unable to open target file for writing
Don’t understand. I’ve tried exporting to the desktop and specific folders, but no matter where I try to export, I get the same error message.

Old versions of Audacity are here … https://www.fosshub.com/Audacity-old.html
The last version of Audacity to officially support Windows 7 was “Audacity 2.3.3 for Windows 7”. You can get it here: https://www.audacityteam.org/download/legacy-windows/
Ensure that you read the entire page, particularly the bit about “Application configuration incorrect” error.
If Audacity 2.3.3 works OK, then I think that Audacity 2.4.2 will also work - it’s worth trying as version 2.4.2 was the best of the 2.x series. You can get Audacity 2.4.2 from here: https://www.fosshub.com/Audacity-old.html (but try version 2.3.3 first).
