What is the difference between Windows 32 bit and Windows 64 bit?

The main difference between 32-bit processors and 64-bit processors is the maximum amount of memory (RAM) that is supported. 32-bit computers support a maximum of 3-4GB of memory, whereas a 64-bit computer can support memory amounts over 4 GB. 32-bit operating system can run on both 64bit and 32 bit computer

The 64-bit version of Windows handles large amounts of random access memory (RAM) more effectively than a 32-bit system.  A big difference between 32-bit processors and 64-bit processors is the number of calculations per second they can perform, which affects the speed at which they can complete tasks. 64-bit processors can come in dual core, quad core, six core, and eight core versions for home computing. Multiple cores allow for an increased number of calculations per second that can be performed, which can increase the processing power and help make a computer run faster. Software programs that require many calculations to function smoothly can operate faster and more efficiently on the multi-core 64-bit processors, for the most part.

64 bit OS supports more hardware capacity e.g RAM and more benefits in applications

The main difference with both of architecture is Processor's capability to process data with two different designed data bit transmissions.

32bit can only support 3GB RAM and 1 GB Graphic but 6bit can support upto 64GB RAM. This illustrates the potiential to process data in a second.

Windows 32 bit use memory of 32 bit but windows 64 bit use memory of 64 bit, that's why we find always a programs of 32 bit or 64 bit 

 

A Windows 8.1 update caused an issue with the Cisco VPN client used by the college. Simply uninstalling and reinstalling the client will not fix the problem.We recommend trying the troubleshooting methods listed below. If you continue to have issues, contact the ITS Service Desk - How to contact ITS.

Troubleshooting method 1

An update for this problem should be available from Microsoft.Ensure all your Windows Updates have completed and are up to date. For help, see How can I tell if my Windows is up to date?If this does not solve your issue, continue with the next method.

Troubleshooting method 2

1. Go to Network and sharing Centre > Change Adapter Settings.
2. Observe if there is a Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Adapter entry that is disabled. 
3. If there is, re-enable the adapter by right-clicking on the icon and choosing Enable.
4. Exit the Network and sharing Centre.
5. Re-launch the VPN client with the adapter enabled.

 

Troubleshooting method 3

1. Install the VPN client. For help, see How do I install Cisco AnyConnect?
2. Open folder C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Cisco\\Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client.
3. Right click the file vpnui.exe and select Properties.
4. Under Compatibility, select Windows 8 .
5. Repeat with the file vpnagent.exe.
6. Press Ctrl + Alt + Del and open Task Manager.
7. Make sure neither of the files/processes you changed in steps 3 - 5 are running under the Processes tab.
8. Re-start the VPN client.

64 bit is handeling resources better than 32 bit e.g)in 32 bit you can use only 3.xx gigabyte of ram only

The terms 32-bit and 64-bit refer to the way a computer's processor (also called a CPU), handles information. The 64-bit version of Windows handles large amounts of random access memory (RAM) more effectively than a 32-bit system. 

A processor with 32-bit memory addresses can directly access 4 GB memory whereas, the 64-bit processor can access double that amount of data or more. You can imagine the traffic capacity on a 32 lane highway and a 64 lane highway as a simple analogy to understand the difference.

windows 32 bit has a ram limit of 4gb while 64bit doesn't and 64bit is faster than the 32bit because it can handle more data at once cause it will utilize the increase in ram

It is basically defines the architecture type of the hardware windows supports. 64 bit windows can only run on a 64 bit architecture, 32 bit can run on both 64 bit and 32 bit architecture flawlessly but it will not use the full potential of 64 bit architecture.
