    Hi Landmark

    My name is Andre Da Costa; an Independent Consultant, Windows Insider MVP and Windows & Devices for IT MVP. I'm here to help you with your problem.

    Yes, it is 64 bit compatible, but make sure any external devices you use such as printers, scanners have 64 bit compatible drivers.

    Switching to Windows 10 64 bit is free, you don't have to pay for it. As long as you have a qualifying Windows 7 or 8 or Windows 10 license, you are entitled to use it.

    Switching requires that you perform a new installation, that means files, applications and settings will be deleted.

    You will have to reinstall applications and native 64 bit drivers.
