Hi Chris,
I received my license file one hour ago and just finished the install. This is when I noticed that the 32-bit executable is still available. I was previously looking at the available downloads and the release notes file. Glad to hear this. To plan ahead, do you know when 32-bit Windows support will be discontinued entirely?
Thanks,
haje
