my apologies for my lack of knowledge. So much to learn. what are the dangers of going back to 32-bit? we have been 64 bit for so long
- PeterNagyFeb 19, 2024Copper ContributorTo be honest I do not know. I have istalled during this turbulent times the 32 version unknownly... I have not even realized. It was just suprising that all my colleauges were still fighting but not me. So I started to look for the difference and it turned out it was just the 32 vs 64. In the meantime I have realized that here in this chat already somebody mentioned this solution.
According to my experience the macro are running slightly slower, but no other difference.
But I am suer there is someboday here in this chat who is more educated on this issue than me...
Cheers

Hello,
You could have performance issues with 32bit version, as the 32bit version cannot used physical memory as much as 64bit version.
