How to upgrade your 32-bit Windows 10 to 64-bit Windows 10

<>

Microsoft cambió su forma de ofrecer actualizaciones con la llegada de Windows 10. De esta manera, cualquier Username podría (y todavía puede) actualizar su antiguo sistema operativo a Windows 10, siempre y cuando tenga una licencia genuina.

At the same time, paying an extra, the user can upgrade the type of Windows 10 they want, going to Windows 10 Enterprise or Proffesional. However, If the version we have is 32-bit, the Windows 10 we have will be a 32-bit Windows 10. This version can be upgraded by obtaining a 64-bit license and a 64-bit Windows 10 image.

(* 32 *) Windows 10 64-bit is faster and more efficient than Windows 10 32-bit

To carry out the update we must follow the following steps:

• Check the version we have.
• Make a full backup.
• Installation of the 64-bit version.

First we have to verify that our computer supports the 64-bit version. Not all of them do. To find out we have to press the Windows key + I, go to System and in About see the type of system we have. If we have Windows 10 32-bit, It will indicate that we have a 32-bit system but that it supports 64-bit. If it doesn't support 64-bit, this won't show up. Therefore we have to make sure that 64-bit support appears.

If our PC supports 64 bits, we must go to the next step: full backup. In this circumstance, we not only have to make a backup of our data, but we also have to obtain the 64-bit versions of our PC's drivers, something simple but without it we can have serious problems. Once this is done, we go to the Microsoft download page and we get the installation tool to be able to install from a pendrive.

The installer is simple and its installation is as easy as a "Next" type wizard. Once the installer has been created on the pendrive, we restart the PC and make sure that the pendrive is loaded. This will run the Windows 10 installer, a clean installation procedure which will add the new features of 64-bit systems.

Windows 10 is a great operating system, but the truth is that there is still no tool that allows us to update from Windows 10 32-bit to Windows 10 64-bit, despite everything, this procedure is important to note Don't you think?
