No option for 64x install?

[dane450]

Windows website only has 1 tool on their website, and it does not give this architect dropdown that i see in every tutorial ever.

it just goes to the button for This Pc Or another i click this and it jumps straight to Downloading windows. (which turns out to be x32 bit over and over) i have a Ryzen motherboard With a Ryzen
5 1600 X , with a Product key FOR windows 10 so no pirates. its a 64 bit motherboard.


theres just no option for X64... anywhere on there imaging tool... i don't know what to do.

im a gamer, and every game now adays REQUIRES 64 bits. Help.

once downloaded select "upgrade another machine" and not "upgrade this pc".

this will give you the option of what version to download. you can get 64-bit with a 32-bit machine no problem this way.

If you say "This PC", it will attempt to upgrade the current system, which is 32bit.
You need to select the other option, and create a USB install.

NOTE: going from 32bit to 64bit is a full wipe and reinstall. Not simply an in place upgrade.
So prepare for this.
