See if process is 32-bit or 64-bits on Details tab of Task Manager of Windows 10

 

Windows 10 comes with a Task Manager which is similar to Windows 8 and radically different from the one in Windows 7 and earlier. It has some nice features, like the performance graph or startup impact calculation. It is able to control which apps launch during startup and can analyze performance of various hardware components. However, only the Processes tab shows if a process is 32-bit. So you might want to tweak the Details tab to show this information too.

The Task Manager app in Windows 7 and earlier showed 32-bit apps running on 64-bit Windows by appending *32 to their process name.

In Windows 10, the Task Manager app shows this information only on the "Processes" tab along with the name or title of the app.

 

Windows 10 tm processes tab

 

Advanced information about running apps is shown on the Details tab, but the target platform of the process is hidden by default.

 

To make it visible, do the following.

Open Task Manager.

Go to the Details tab in More details mode.

 

Windows 10 tm details tab

 

 

Right click on the column headers row and click Select columns in the context menu:

 

select columns

 

 

Tick the Platform column:

 

tick platform column

 

 

Windows-10-tm-details-tab-with-platform.

 

Now you can see if the process is 32-bit or 64-bit on the Details tab of the Task Manager in Windows 10.

If you look in the one screenshot you can see thirty two bit in parenthesis could be showing those files as thirty two bit there could be additional files that are thirty two bit that dont show thirty two bit in parenthesis.  In process explorer you have to do similiar shit to get to see thirty two bit or sixty four bit processes.  I look at task manager only if its necessary if its not I use process explorer.
