Windows x86 or Windows x64?

• x86 is for 32-bit Windows; x64 is for 64-bit Windows

• Windows XP or older are 32-bit

• Newer versions of Windows most likely are 64-bit but may not be if you upgraded from a 32-bit version

• There is no real advantage for us in the x64

• The x86 will work fine for all Windows

If you are interested, here is how to see whether you have the 32-bit or the 64-bit Windows

1. Either click the Windows Explorer (aka: “File Manager”) icon on the Task Bar OR choose “Computer” from the Start Menu OR double-click the MyComputer button on the Desktop

2. In the Navigation Pane to the left, right-click on Computer and choose Properties from the popup menu
