Windows 10: Is it possible to install 64-bit version on a x86-based PC?

Hi


Is it possible to install the 64-bit version of Windows 10 on an "ACPI x86-based PC" even if it's processor (Core 2 Duo T5800) is 64-bit compatible? I'm trying to upgrade my old laptop from 32-bit Windows 10 to a 64-bit version. Can you help me whether should I install the 64-bit or the 32-bit? Thanks!

:)

 

Error during iTunes installation in Windows 10 64 bits version

Hi,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

As you said that " it worked fine with 32-bit version", and there is a problem in installing in 64-bit version. But iTunes application is compatible with both the versions. There may be an issue with the PC which/iTunes application which is not supporting
the particular PC.

The error code which you have provided is related to Windows update.

I suggest you to run the Windows update troubleshooter and check if it helps.

You can follow the steps:

• 
  Type Troubleshooting in the search box present in the Taskbar.
  
• 
  Select Troubleshooting.
  
• 
  Select View all on the top left corner.
  
• 
  Run Windows update Troubleshooter.
  

Let us know the status of the issue.

Thanks.

 

Why program files are listed as 32-bit (x86) while operating system is 64-bit in Windows 10

Original Title: 64bit or 32bit?

Hello. I'm a bit confused as to why my program files are listed as 32-bit (x86) while my system is 64-bit. It's listed as 64-bit under system settings however the x86 would lead me to believe otherwise. Any ideas? I
am running Windows 10.
