First, both 32 and 64 bit versions work just fine - not sure where the idea of 64 bit not working comes from(?).
Anyhow, to deploy the runtime you must use either the clickonce, msi or create a deployment project that uses the msm (32 bit only). Copying "stuff" from one folder to another does not work.
Re. clickonce:
CR portion of the install blows up with a temp path error.
Would be nice to see the actual error(?).
As long as you are using SP 8 or higher, you are good as far as VS 2012 is concerned. All links to the runtime files are documented here:
