As of January 1, 2026, Steam will stop supporting systems running 32-bit versions of Windows. Windows 10 32-bit is the only 32-bit version that is currently supported by Steam and is only in use on 0.01% of systems reported through the Steam Hardware Survey. Windows 10 64-bit will still be supported...

No one uses 32 bit Windows (especially for gaming), but at least we might at last get a 64 bit verison of the Steam client on Windows.

    It’s still kinda shitty. There’s better way to archive the old version of steam but leave it readily available.

      There is no way to have a legacy Steam client that’s not maintained but still must authenticate users, transactions, and downloads.
