  • You cannot do an "upgrade in place". You have to backup your data and reinstall Windows and any applications that you use.

  • Hi,

     

    Firstly, you need to determine that your device features a 64-bit processor, at least 2GB of RAM, and whether the rest of the components have support for 64-bit drivers.

    Open Settings-system-about, under the "Device specifications" section, check the System type details.

     

    Once you complete the steps, if "System type" reads 32-bit operating system, x64-based processor, then your computer is running the Windows 10 32-bit version on a 64-bit processor. However, if it reads 32-bit operating system, x86-based processor, then your device doesn't support the 64-bit version of Windows 10.

     

    Then you could refer to the following link to change versions:

    Hope above information can help you.
