      • That means you have Windows 10 64-bit

What would happen when I install 32-bit software in a 64-bit opareting system?

While installing some software I found that software have only 32 bit version. I was wondering what happen when I install a 32 bit software in 64 bit operating system.

I use windows 10 in 64 bit architecture.

 

64 bit and 32 bit

Maybe I am wrong, My system lists 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor. When I got to Microsoft.com it reads autodetected 32-bit. This is driving me bonkers.
