My Windows 10 64 bit PC has mysteriously switched to 32 bit.I know this because system says it is 32 bit. Most of the programs are 64 bit and will no longer run. I have both os's installed but disabled the 32 bit system. Help.
The computer date has also gone back to May 22, 2016, which was prior to my upgrade to 64 bit. I reset the date to today and restarted. Still in 32 bit OS.
It's as if the 64 bit OS has been replaced by the 32 bit OS or that the PC has been restored to a point before the 64 bit was installed. How can I tell if the ^$ bit OS is still on my hard drive. A parttition that I created is gone, as well.
The last windows imaged backup is 5/22. The one I created after the upgrade is also gone.
I just checked my hard drive and there is nothing newer in the windows directory than 5/21/2016 except bootstat.dat and WindowsUpdate both today.
32 bit programs installed after 5/22 have broken links.
I don't know it this matters but Disk Management says Disk 0 is not initialized
