    Hi all.

    I recently purchased a 64-bit Windows 10 Pro license key in order to upgrade my 64-bit OEM Windows 10 Home edition. My concern is will I have to reinstall all of my existing purchased programs Adobe Acrobat DC, for one that have limited activations? Most of my programs were digital purchases since my notebook doesn't have a CD/DVD drive.

    Any help is appreciated, and Happy Thanksgiving to the rest of my US peeps!

    Thanks, Michael

    :)

    upgrade from 32 bit windows 10 pro to 64 bit

    The first item to check is to ensure your PC has 64 bit processor, if yes, to upgrade from 32 bit to 64 bit requires a 'clean install', you will need to purchase a Windows 10 Pro installation device (DVD).

    The current upgrade system will only install the bit version of W10 that is currently installed.

    Upgrading from 32 to 64 bit system can not be carried out by utilising the current free upgrade system, also upgrading from 32 to 64 bit system has always required purchasing a 64 bit installation device.

    Windows 10 Pro OEM does it support both 3rd parties apps 32-bit and 64-bit?

    I did not ask a question about OEM!!! I know what is OEM. Thank you.

    Please... my ONE question is "Windows 10 Pro OEM does it support both 3rd parties apps 32-bit and 64-bit?"

    If yes, what are the list of 3rd parties apps 32-bit (at least 20 apps to prove that it does support 32-bit excluding the 64-bit bits in Windows 10 Pro).

    Windows 10 Pro OEM does it support both 3rd parties apps 32-bit and 64-bit?

    I'm trying to figure out what this question even means? You want someone to post a list of 20 32bit Widows programs? Why? 64bit Windows natively supports all Windows programs whether 32 or 64 bit, it doesn't matter.
