Title: 64bit Bit Che?
Post by: Matt23 on October 23, 2009, 05:44:03 pm

I was just wondering but is there going to be a pure 64bit version of Bit Che? I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit and Bit Che has installed into a folder called Program Files (x86) and even though it runs fine, there is an unsightly *32 in Task Manager beside it and every app that is 32bit.

So I'm asking around at every forum and emailing customer support for every software I have that does this and asking the same thing..Are there plans for there to be a 64bit version?

The easy way around *32 in Task Manager is don't use Task Manager.

A more reasonable answer is probably not 32Bit apps run Fine on Windows 64 but Windows 64 apps don't run at all on Windows 32 Bit Che doesn't need 3GB+ of ram to run & probably never will.

Bit Che wouldn't gain anything from being a 64Bit App.

just to echo what Bovski has written... at the moment, there is no reason to have a pure 64bit version, especially since the amount of work it would take to re-write the application would not balance the slight improvement in speed,  *if any at all*.

so officially, for now, there are no plans.  and also, I do use Windows 7 x64 bit myself.
