Default Am I running a 32 bit (aka x86) or 64 bit Windows?

To avoid CONFUSIONS:


x86 = 32 bit

64 = 64 bit

If you do not know your OS (Operating System)
check your manual or check your System via
the Start - Menu - Control Panel - using one of these: Personalization and Tools -OR-
System - Or - Device Manager

They will show you which one you are running if it
is not showing on front, side, back of your computer
or if it came with a manual - does not imply there.

Also you will know even more about your computer
in there as well.


If you have CCleaner( a cleaning program that is free )
your whole system information is right there on the upper left. I do recommend this program as it is exceptionally popular and does a wonderful job of
cleaning up cache, temp, etc - files.

You don't have to download this - but you can if you
would like to, it has the option also to check and
clean out your registry and fix it as well as Add/Remove
and Win Restore features too! I have been using this
program since it was wearing diapers!
