Find out if your Windows server is running a 32bit or 64bit system

Written by Richi González Wednesday, 23 February 2011

Hello,

After I received an e-mail saying that it would be helpful to write an article like this one, but for Windows Servers, I started researching and found a very easy way of doing it.

Just open up the command prompt (CMD) and type in the following:

wmic OS get OSArchitecture

Press enter and it will return something like this:

C:\Users\Richi> wmic OS get OSArchitecture
 OSArchitecture
 64 bits

Now I know that my CPU is 64 bits. Easy, right?

Well, I hope I was helpful. Anything you need, please do not hesitate to contact me. If you want me to post an article of something, let me know =)

Best Regards,

Richi

   Hi, shared plans do not allow you to do that, you would need a VPS to do that.
