The terms 32-bit(x86) and 64-bit(x64) refers to the way a computer's processor (also called a CPU), handles information. The 64-bit version of Windows handles large amounts of random access memory (RAM) more effectively than a 32-bit system. 

System Type tells you whether you're using the 32-bit version of Windows 10 or the 64-bit version. It also tells you whether your PC is compatible with the 64-bit version or not.

The 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor indicates you're using a 64-bit version of Windows 10 on a 64-bit processor.

The 32-bit operating system, x64-based processor indicates you're using a 32-bit version of Windows 10, but you could install the 64-bit version on your hardware if you preferred.

Generally speaking, to run a 64-bit version of Windows, your computer must have a 64-bit-capable processor. 64-bit versions of Windows can run 32-bit software, but 32-bit versions of Windows can’t run 64-bit software. 

 

Way 1: Use Windows logo+Pause Break keys on the keyboard to open system.

 

Way 2: 

Step 1: Open Settings, then click on the System icon. 

Step 2: Select About on the left side.

Look under PC for System type to see if you're running a 32-bit or 64-bit version of Windows 

Way 3: 

Step1: Press Win + R keys to open the Run dialog, type msinfo32, and hit Enter.

Step 2: In System Summary, look to see if your System Type on the right side is either an x64-based PC or an x86-based PC.

 

Way 4: Open Command Prompt window.

In the command prompt, type systeminfo, and press Enter.

Change the height of the Start menu

Step 2: Move your cursor to the top edge of the Start Menu so your cursor looks like a double-sided arrow.

Step 3: Click and drag up or down to resize the Start Menu.

Step 4: Let go.

Change the width of the Start menu

Step 1: Click on the Start Menu button. It's the Windows icon in the bottom left corner.  

Step 2: Move your cursor to the right edge of the Start Menu so your cursor looks like a double-sided arrow.

Step 3: Click and drag right or left to resize the Start Menu.

Step 4: Let go.

 How to make the Start menu full screen

 

Step 1: Open the Settings app by pressing Win + I keys on your keyboard.

Google Drive can also convert any PDF, JPG, PNG, or GIF into a document with fully editable text. Here’s how.

The process for converting PDFs and images to text is really easy, but good results depend on good source material, so here are some basic guidelines to follow: 

• The text in your PDF or image should be a minimum of 10 pixels high.
• Documents must be oriented right-side up. If they are turned left or right, make sure you rotate them first.
• This works best if your file contains common fonts such as Arial or Times New Roman.
• Images should be sharp and evenly lit with strong contrast. If they are too dark or blurry, you won’t get very good results.

The more complicated the image or PDF, the more trouble Google Drive may have converting it properly. It probably won’t have problems with font styles like bold and italics, but other things like lists, tables, and footnotes may not be retained.

Step 1: Open drive.google.com in your browser. You can click-and-drag the jpg, .gif, or .png with text from your file browser.

 

or you can click New followed by File Upload and browse to the file you want to upload.

 

Step 2: A dialog box displays the progress of the upload and when the upload is complete in lower right side of your screen. Click the “X” on the dialog box to close it. 

Step 3: Right-click on the image file in the file list and select Open With > Google Docs.

 

You’ll end up with a Google Docs file containing the image at the beginning, followed by the text extracted from the image in an editable form. The results of conversions from images files are generally not as good as from PDF files, though.

 

Note: Some formatting might not transfer: 

Bold, italics, font size, font type, and line breaks are most likely to be retained.

 Lists, tables, columns, footnotes, and endnotes are likely not be detected.

You have to enable it on each iOS device if you want the dark mode appearance on your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch.
