Until now, OneDrive was only available as a 32-bit version. Microsoft said, 'If you have large files, a large number of files, or a computer running a 64-bit version of Windows, the 64-bit version of OneDrive is more suitable. Usually, a 64-bit version of Windows is used. The running PC has more memory and higher processing power than the PCs of the era when 32-bit Windows was commonplace. Also, 64-bit applications have more memory than 32-bit applications. It's accessible. '

The 64-bit version of the OneDrive installer is distributed on the

official page. If you already have the 32-bit version of OneDrive installed, you can update to the 64-bit version by following the steps. Also, if the 64-bit version of OneDrive is officially released, it will be automatically updated from the 32-bit version to the 64-bit version if it meets the requirements.

The current 32-bit version of OneDrive can be used on ARM64 version Windows, but the 64-bit version released this time cannot be used on ARM64 version Windows.

Microsoft spokeswoman Ankita Kirti said, 'OneDrive is evolving as a way to access all the files that Office 365 services handle, as well as user feedback and upcoming events. I want to connect with users at. '
