Windows 10 comes in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions. The main advantage of the 64-bit version is that you can install much more random access memory (RAM), which can significantly improve system performance when working with photos, editing video, gaming, and performing other resource-intensive tasks. That alone is a pretty good reason to take advantage of the free Windows 10 32-bit to 64-bit upgrade , but there's an even better reason.
How do I upgrade Windows 10 32-bit to 64-bit without losing data?
Starting with the May 2020 Update, version 2004, Microsoft no longer releases 32-bit versions of Windows 10 alongside their 64-bit updates. So while you can continue using the operating system by simply stopping updates, doing so exposes you to security vulnerabilities, system instability, and other problems.
Upgrading from 32-bit to 64-bit Windows is completely free, and you don’t even need to have access to your original product key. As long as you have a valid copy of Windows 10, your license is valid for a free upgrade.
All you need to perform this upgrade is a computer with a 64-bit central processing unit (CPU) running 32-bit Windows, a way to back up your data, and a USB flash drive with at least 8GB of storage capacity.
