If you're running Windows XP, chances are it's 32-bit. However, if you're running Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vista, the chance that you're running a 64-bit version goes up considerably.

Of course, this isn't something you want to take a guess at.

Knowing if your copy of Windows is 32-bit or 64-bit becomes very important when installing device drivers for your hardware and choosing between certain kinds of software.

One quick way to tell if you're running a 32-bit or 64-bit version of Windows is by looking at information about your operating system installation in Control Panel. However, the specific steps involved depend a lot on which operating system you're using.

Another quick and simple way to check if you're running a 32-bit or 64-bit version of Windows is to check the 'Program Files' folder. There's more on that at the very bottom of this page.

Check the 'Program Files' Folder Name

This method isn't as easy to understand as using Control Panel but it does provide a quick way of checking on whether you're running a 64-bit or 32-bit version of Windows, and is especially helpful if you're looking for this information from a command line tool.

If your version of Windows is 64-bit, you're able to install both 32-bit and 64-bit software programs, so there are two different 'Program Files' folders on your computer. However, 32-bit versions of Windows have just one folder since they can only install 32-bit programs.
