I had this same problem as ive got the installs for filePro ver 4.8.10
windows version  and the p.exe included will NOT work. But the last version
of 4.8.13 has a updated version of p.exe that does work.

The Windows version of filePro should have a Windows version of p.exe, which

should work just fine.

If it used to work, and you didn't change Windows from 32-bit to 64-bit, 
then you must have a Windows version of p.exe which you used to run, in 
addition to an MS-DOS version which for some reason is being run now.

When I get the "64-bit incompatibility" error, it gives me the full path to 
the executable.  Does the path it gives you make sense?  Is it finding p.exe

in the location you expected?  What is the size of that p.exe file?
