This is caused by the fact that the install scripts are leveraging BizTalk’s BTSCatalogExplorer Object Model which is only available in 32 bit mode. Don’t worry, you can still install the samples. What you have to do is to manually launch a 32 bit version of the powershell console and then run the powershell script from there. This will allow the script to access the BTSCatalogExplorer OM without problem.

Cheers and keep on BizTalking…
