You can find instructions for this at the bottom of this guide. Luckily, it is easy enough to select which bit version you want to install in case you do not want the default one. Although the considerations for using 32-bit vs 64-bit are the same for Office 2010, 20, the default for new installations of these versions will remain 32-bit for now. Personally, and mainly from an Outlook perspective, I’ve seen very few instances over the past years where using the 64-bit version of Office would have caused issues, so I’m happy that Microsoft now finally decided that the turning point has been reached.įor Office 2019 and Microsoft 365 Apps (previously known as Office 365), the default for new installations has now been set to 64-bit. Where can I download the 64-bit version of Office?Īs of the release of Office 2019, Microsoft is now recommending to install the 64-bit version of Office unless you have a specific need which still requires the 32-bit version.What are the downsides or benefits when I install the 64-bit version?.Does Microsoft still recommend installing the 32-bit version?.I seem to recall that Microsoft used to recommend to install the 32-bit version, even on a 64-bit version of Windows but that was some years ago. It offers to install the 32-bit version but I know there is also a 64-bit version available. The fix is to redesign the memory management method for Calc sheets and has nothing to do with 32/64 bit issues.I’ve just installed Windows 10 on my computer and I’m now about to install Office. 16 bit allows indices up to 65,536 so, if 65,536 is the limit in the number of columns, it is likely to be a historical 16 bit limit unless both row number and column number are contained in the same index number.Įdit: Column number seems to be a memory management problem, where even tiny sheets need to use much more memory if the column number is increased. That being said, I somehow doubt that 60,000 columns is a 32/64 bit limit as 32 bit allows indices up to 4,294,967,296.
How many users want 60k+ columns in a spreadsheet compared with how many users don't? This has been the case for well over 10 years, so this whole attitude of, oh well we really don't need 64 bit why bother is just becoming a very negative excuse.įeature enhancement is about getting the maximum benefit for the maximum number of users with the available, always limited, resource.
