According to foreign media reports, starting with the 2004 version of Windows 10, Microsoft will no longer provide 32-bit versions of the operating system to OEM manufacturers and developers, and new personal computers will no longer be pre-installed with 32-bit versions of the operating system provided by OEM manufacturers. version, this change is documented in the Windows 10 minimum hardware requirements document.

In this regard, Microsoft said that they are still committed to providing 32-bit builds through other channels. This means that you can still buy a retail version of Windows 10 and install the 32-bit version. But eventually, 32-bit CPUs will no longer be supported by manufacturers, and these devices will disappear at some point.

The actual situation is that almost any PC processor you can buy now supports 64-bit CPU. At least from the perspective of personal PCs, this long-term road is actually not that long.

In addition, in last year's Windows 10 version 1903, Microsoft increased the minimum storage capacity requirements for Windows 10 PCs from 16GB on 32-bit devices and 20GB on 64-bit devices to 32GB.

Some industry insiders bluntly said that Microsoft’s announcement that it will no longer support the 32-bit version of the Windows 10 operating system is a gradual process, and of course it will also be a long process.
