App is not installable in Win7 / Linux Ubuntu

So, hello, folks.

Friend of mine asked me to register in Discord, and web-wersion is acceptable, but App installer for PC - is just SOMETHING!

First attempt to install app was on Win7 with blocked updates (i'm not need 'em, because they're broke more then fix, and pretty much slow system with each update).

Squirrel installer just fall with error 'Can't find nextafter in MSVCR120_CLR0400.DLL'. WTF? .Net? Bleh. You're app isn't use .Net, but installer does? Why? Really? Not standart installers? Well, anyway i've just extracted app on disk and add link to desktop. It really possible to make with WinRAR SFX archive. App working without errors. 32-bit image (it'll be meanful in next attempt).

Okay. Second attepmt. GNU/Linux Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. (I'm really don't want update OS, 'cause this will break desktop enviroment, and new one is broken out-of-box).

Downloaded .deb packet and:

~# dpkg -i /home/alan/Загрузки/discord-0.0.5.deb
dpkg-deb: ошибка: «/home/alan/Загрузки/discord-0.0.5.deb» не является
архивом в формате debian

(Error /home/alan/Загрузки/discord-0.0.5.deb - is not Debian archive)

WHAT? Let's try another time.

dpkg: не удалось обработать параметр
/home/alan/Загрузки/discord-0.0.5.deb (--install):
подпроцесс dpkg-deb --control возвратил код ошибки 2
При обработке следующих пакетов произошли ошибки:
/home/alan/Загрузки/discord-0.0.5.deb
архитектура пакета (amd64) не соответствует архитектуре системы (i386)

(Packet's architecture (amd64) is not compatible win system one (i386))

Really? There is NO option witn i386 arch. WTF, guys?

Several friends diligently praised your application, but instead of a simple installation, I get some kind of... (Insert bad words here). Why?

Maybe i'm too old for all this, but i do remember self-contained applications, like compiled in Borland Delphi 7 IDE, compiled in WinXP and possible to run in ANY Windows* systems. Really, any.

My graduation project in highschool was written on Delphi, and it really worked system-independent, but THIS. Just can't describe my dissapoitment.

2nded for this issue with the installer, I believe the app is stuck in an update loop, it was giving me the exact same problems for windows 7. Any luck on fixing the issue?
