Actual on 32 bit windows 10, 8.1 or 7 you can actually use some 16 bit software using NTVDM.
If EMET can be bypassed, wouldn't be safer to use windows 32 bit operating even on 64 bit machine especially if your machine only has 4 gb of ram and you don't plan to upgrade the memory?WoW64, Windows subsystem that allows 32-bit software to run on 64-bit Windows machines. A sizeable sample of Duo customers shows some disturbing numbers in terms of vulnerable users. For example, 80 percent of browsers in the researchers’ sample size were 32-bit processes executing on a 64-bit host running WOW64, putting them all at risk. EMET remains a viable protection for Windows users, one that Microsoft has marketed many times as a temporary stopgap between the disclosure of a zero-day vulnerability and the availability of a patch. But in the WoW64 example, EMET can be completely bypassed
The soft spot, the researchers said, is the WoW64, Windows subsystem that allows 32-bit software to run on 64-bit Windows machines.
