I changed target to Win32 then when I closed the dialog an error message popped
up:

---------------------------------------------------------
The current FPC has no config file. It will probably miss
some units. Check your installation of fpc.
[OK]  [Ignore]
---------------------------------------------------------

When I hit [OK] I got this pop-up:

-----------------------------------------------------------
The project uses target OS=win32 and CPU=x86_64.
The system.ppu for this target was not found in the FPC
binary directories.
Make sure fpc is installed correctly for this target and the
fpc.cfg contains the right directories.
   [OK]
------------------------------------------------------------

My installation was done using a full Lazarus/FPC installer from SourceForge:
lazarus-2.2.4-fpc-3.2.2-win64.exe

So both Lazarus and Fpc come from the same installer and it installs an isolated
environment so one can have several versions installed at the same time.

What to do now?
And what is the problem?
