    Accidentally installed 32-bit version of Windows 10


    I accidentally installed the 32-bit version of Windows 10 and I need and can support the 64-bit version. I've tried booting from the Windows 10 USB I've got, but it doesn't work. It just goes directly to the sign in page. How can I get rid of the 32-bit version and get the 64-bit version installed?

    :)

    Upgrade Windows 10 32-bit to 64-bit.

    You have to do a "clean install" of Win 10 64 bit. There is no "upgrade" process from 32 to 64 bit.

    Did you have Win 7 Home or Pro. There is no "free upgrade" from Win 7 Home to Win 10 Pro. You have to do that upgrade in at least 2 steps:

    Win 7 Home to Pro to Win 10 Pro

    OR

    Win 7 Home to Win 10 Home to Win 10 Pro

    The 32 bit to 64 bit upgrade is a separate additional step.

    Run the WinVer command. What Version and Build do you have?

    If you have Version 1803, many people have reported "accidental" upgrades from Home to Pro by MS. But that "upgrade" doesn't work!
