How to connect an IVI Driver to Instrument Control Toolbox (Test &Measurent Tool) once downloaded on computer?

I think I have all the components to install a new IVI driver into MATLAB but it is not recognizing the driver I downloaded. All the info that MATLAB has of the driver is listed below. How can I connect the IVI Driver to the Test and Measurement Tool now that it is downloaded on my computer?

It looks like the driver is not registered for your configuration in the IVI configuration store. Are you using a 32-bit driver and 64-bit MATLAB, or vice-versa?

The driver I downloaded is stored in x86 folders, but I am using x64 matlab. I'm having trouble importing the IVI into MIDEDIT. Is it because the driver is 32bit?
Trying to connect to Agilent E4448 Spec.An.
If you are using a 32-bit driver, you need to use 32-bit MATLAB. Since you mention an Agilent E4438, you do not need a driver - you can use SCPI commands with the instrument. See this example. It should work on 32-bit or 64-bit MATLAB and the software stack needed is also very slim.
