Environment

Windows® 10, 32-bit*

BUILT IN - ARTICLE INTRO SECOND COMPONENT
Summary

Provides information about the compatibility of 32-bit programs with 10th Generation Intel® Core™ Processors.

Description

Need to know if a 32-bit program can run on a system with a 10th Generation Intel® Core™ Processor. 

Resolution

The 10th Gen Intel processors are built using the instruction set of 64-bit, which means that they should be compatible with running 32-bit programs.

The IA-32 Architecture refers to systems based on 32-bit processors, while the Intel® 64 Architecture refers to systems based on IA-32 architecture processors which have 64-bit architectural extensions.
