Switch from a 32-bit OS to 64-bit OS on Windows 10
I am running a 32 bit Windows 10 OS. I was looking around and noticed that my PC has an x64-based processor. Everything I have looked at so far tells me that I can run the 64 bit OS on this PC.
If I was to reload Windows 10 with the 64-bit OS from an ISO disk, are there any problems I should watch out? If it messes up, can I go back to the 32 bit OS using the 32 bit ISO disk? Are there any licensing problems if I do this? I would guess that the 32-bit apps would still work like 32-bit apps and any 64 bit apps would take advantage of the 64 bit OS.
Or should I just forget about it and leave things as they are.
I have been on Windows 10 for a while and have no plans on going back to Windows 7 so reverting back to the Windows 7 32-bit OS is not a concern.
Thanks,
Bill
