Hello,


I tried to find out what java I'm running so I checked in 2 ways:

1. cmd "java -version" - says I'm running 32bit version (see here) (what it means)
2. windows says I am running a 64bit version (see here)

So what do I have now? Is it possible that I have both versions installed and how do I remove the 32 bit version?

Thanks in advance.

You just have the 32-bit version.
The second image just shows you have a 64-bit processor and operating system, which is nothing to do with the java version. Unless you have a specific need for the 64bit version of java, you'll probably be fine with 32-bit.

But if you really want 64-bit, you can uninstall the 32-bit version in control panel, then download the 64-bit version from here.
