Thishappened with me as well. Confirm that you downloaded the correct installer (64bit). Then quit Chrome completely and restart it. Go to the settings menu (hamburger icon) > About Chrome (chrome://chrome/). Under the version number, there will be a message about an update and a button that says "Relaunch." Click on that button to update Chrome properly.
When you go on the page after this, the version number should say "Version 37.0.x (64-bit)". I believe this happens because Chrome doesn't really close itself and keeps running in the background, so a manual relaunch is required to make the switch.
Press win+i then when you got to the setting scroll down to the end of the page and after that click on information and you can see about the detail of your device if it's 64 bit I think it would be ok to download each you wanted to.
I came here while searching for the answer to if it works on 64-bit Chrome following the announcement that from version 58 Chrome will default to 64-bit on Windows provided certain conditions are met:
-channel-update-for-desktop.html
In order to improve stability, performance, and security, users who are currently on 32-bit version of Chrome, and 64-bit Windows with 4GB or more of memory and auto-update enabled will be automatically migrated to 64-bit Chrome during this update. 32-bit Chrome will still be available via the Chrome download page.
There is no separate chromedriver binary for Windows 64 bit. Chromedriver 32 bit binary works for both 32 as well as 64 bit versions of Windows. As of today, you can find the latest version of chromedriver Windows binary at _win32.zip
The current release of chromedriver (v2.16) has been mentioned as running much smoother since it's older versions (there were a lot of issues before). This post mentions this and some of the slight differences between chromedriver and running the normal firefox driver:
My question is if there is a specific way to make coexist chrome 32 and 64 bits version. I have a windows 7 64 bits and I recently install chrome 64 bits to test some java applets, surprisingly the 64 bits version is installed in the 32 bits folder (C:\Program Files (x86)) overriding the 32 bit version. Actually the installer creates two exe files in C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application chrome.exe and old_chrome.exe. First I suppose that chrome.exe opens the 64 bit version and old_chrome.exe opens the 32 bit. However both open 64 bits version.
I need the two versions installed to make test with both, I don't care about plugins (I know that there are some plugins that doesn't work, and for example flash hasn't a 64 bit version), the thing is that I want to have both versions installed correctly on the same machine. Is there a way or workaround to do so?
This chrome flavor it's for developers and due this it's probably not very stable, however IMO it's also a good choice because chrome 32 bits and chrome canary 64 bits can coexists and besides canary it's and official release from google.
Chrome supports a number of different release channels. We use these channels toslowly roll out updates to users, starting with our close to daily Canarychannel builds, all the way up to our Stable channel releases that happen every6 weeks roughly.
The release channels for chrome range from the most stable and tested (Stablechannel) to completely untested and likely least stable (Canary channel). Youcan run all channels alongside all others, as they do not share profiles withone another. This allows you to play with our latest code, while still keeping atested version of Chrome around.
Note: Early access releases (Canary builds and Dev and Beta channels) willbe only partly translated into languages other than English. Text related to newfeatures may not get translated into all languages until the feature is releasedin the Stable channel.
Before you switch, you should make a backup of your profile (bookmarks, mostvisited pages, history, cookies, etc). If you ever want to switch back to a morestable channel, your updated profile data might not be compatible with the olderversion.Make a copy of the User Data\Default directory (for example, copy it to'Default Backup' in the same location). The location depends on your operatingsystem:
Google Chrome is extremely popular with our readers, but did you know that they also have a 64-bit version of the browser these days? Here's how to tell which version you are running, and how to switch if you aren't.
If you aren't sure what the difference between 64-bit and 32-bit Windows is, you should probably read our article on that subject first, but if you have a fairly new computer there's a good chance you are running 64-bit Windows.
Assuming you don't require a lot of older plugins in your browser, you should probably at least think about using the 64-bit version of Google Chrome -- the only real issues so far are that the 64-bit version doesn't support the older 32-bit plugins that the 32-bit version has always supported.
The benefits, however, are speed, security, and stability. The 64-bit version shows a 15 percent increase in video rendering, 25 percent improvement in loading times, and it supports DirectWrite on Windows. The addition of ASLR (address space layout randomization) improves security against many types of zero-day attacks, and the 64-bit version crashes about half as often as the 32-bit version did.
In order to check whether you are using a 32 or 64-bit version or Google Chrome, you will need to open your browser, which we'll assume is already open because you are reading this article, and then go to the menu and choose "About Google Chrome." You could also go to the About section of the settings.
It's a been a while since last time I used this forum, but here I am to report my issue logging in on the Evernote plug-in of my recent Chrome versions of my Windows 10 to save notes off the articles I read from there etc. I thought at first it was password issue (which I did change just now) or 2FA bug but both didn't seem to be there when I logged on Evernote Web thru that Chrome of the same notebook where I also own Evernote app there, well, web version of it DID go thru fine. App is fine on both phone and notebook. But why is it only plugin it won't send me to next page after typing in my password now and then, yes it is a sign-in kinda pop-up of its plugin? It will just send me back to square one to type my password again and again (then password previously and now with current one), being silent as if I didn't do anything in the first place. And no, my notebook specs are running fine too. What should I do, other than reporting this bug to Evernote? Chrome Windows browser version is of 114.0.5735.199 (official build, 64-bit).
I'm not absolutely clear how to reproduce your experience. In general, if the web clipper plug in isn't working, a good first step is to uninstall the plug in then reinstall and try again. Have you tried that?
I am using the same version of Chrome 114.0.5735.199 (official Build, 64-bit), which is reporting as the current version and like @agsteele, I am unable to reproduce this behaviour. I would also advise trying to uninstall and reinstall the Web Clipper.
Umm to answer both @agsteele and @bmcl26, I did try uninstalling and reinstalling Web Clipper several times but this issue remains present. When Chrome was at zero tabs in a time and multiple tabs in different time, it is same, I cannot do anything with that unlogged Web Clipper so I have to resort to phone version of Chrome to have them clipped by Evernote Android app. I am at a loss as to what to do, and I do not really like the last resort of having that Chrome Windows uninstalled and reinstalled for this issue over my currently open tabs... And no, I am not on VPN for that notebook.
Do you have other plug ins installed? Occasionally plug-ins conflict. It can be worth disabling all plug-ins and then re-enabling the web clipper. If it then works you can experiment until you identify the conflict.
I now did just look into them, and I decided to uninstall some unused plugins like torrent checker and a few failed vpn ones. And redid Evernote plugin as in uninstalled and reinstalled it. No getting out (no exit, force close, nor restart etc) of Chrome Windows app yet. And tried to log in on that login pop-up, it did let me go thru to next page which is 2FA verification, and now I'm all settled. Thank you @agsteele and @bmcl26 for replies, this was surely a headache for weeks over it.
The users will not notice any difference according to this: -64-bit-vs-32-bit-for-windows-is-64-bit-worth-installing/ . If you are keen to do it, put in on a departments PCs first and see how it goes. If no complaints roll it out.
