You are an IT technician in a company that has recently purchased a new 32-bit application for data analysis. Most of your workstations have been upgraded to a 64-bit version of Windows 10. Which of the following actions ensures the new application runs properly?
Install a virtual machine with a 32-bit operating system and then install the application.
Downgrade the operating system to a 32-bit version of Windows 10.
Contact the application vendor for a 64-bit version of the software.
Install the 32-bit application on the current 64-bit Windows 10 OS.
Most 32-bit applications can run on a 64-bit operating system due to the support provided by the 64-bit OS for 32-bit applications. This is a common scenario in many professional settings where older or specific software may not have 64-bit versions.
