based on <a href="https://www.backblaze.com/blog/64-bit-os-vs-32-bit-os/" rel="nofollow ugc">this link</a> more than 98% of users use x64 systems but at the <a href="https://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/v7.6.2.html" rel="nofollow ugc">npp download page</a> 32 bit ver is bold.<br />
I know more plugins are available for 32 bit but at the moment a lot of them have x64 version.<br />
Making x64 bold will encourage evelopers to compile their plugins x64.</p>

<p dir="auto">“bold” isn’t quote the word I would use, because all the text is identical size/boldness for the 32bit and 64bit.</p>
<p dir="auto">But yes, the 32bit is listed first (that could arguably be caused by “alphanumeric sort”) and 32bit has the big download icon, whereas the 64bit just has the textual links – so it does seem to emphasize / encourage 32bit download over the 64bit download.</p>
<p dir="auto">If you want to improve the chances that the developer will notice your suggestion, follow the instructions in the <a href="https://notepad-plus-plus.org/community/topic/15741/faq-desk-feature-request-or-bug-report" rel="nofollow ugc">FAQ</a> for adding an issue to the issues page.</p>
