How to check whether Windows is 32-bit or 64-bit

  1. Press Windows key + I to open Settings.
  2. Go to System → About.
  3. Look at System type. It says whether you have a 64-bit or 32-bit operating system, and whether your processor is x64-based.

Why it matters

  • Windows 11 is only available in 64-bit.
  • If your processor is x64-based but you run 32-bit Windows, you can move to 64-bit, but it requires a clean install.
  • Office installs as 64-bit by default. You can’t mix 32-bit and 64-bit Office apps on the same PC, so match any Office apps you already have.
