Hey!
I'll try to make this as simple as possible.
I have a PC, capable of running in a 64bit version of Windows.

So, I recently upgraded to Windows 10, and then realised it installed the 32 bit version, which is obviously my mistake.

So what I'd like to have is, being able to install the 64 bit version, the easiest way possible.

What I've tried:
- I tried using the "reset this pc" windows 10 feature, it didn't help, all it did was reinstall windows, and never gave me an option to choose 32 or 64 bit.

- I've tried doing RAM patches several times, because really, I don't care what 32bit limits, but RAM is what I need. And RAM patches were not working.

- I've tried using the "Media Creation Tool" to install 64bit version, but apparently you can't run that tool ON windows 10.

^ Please actually read what I've tried before replying. Thanks alot!

-Dennis

Dude, that doesn't help at all. That download link is for Windows 10, yes, I know. But it's using the Media Creation Tool thing ; which can't run on Windows 10.
