Windows Installer - 64 or 32 bit?

Hello to all,

I am new to this list (but not so new to Gimp). I will hold a photo and video editing seminar tomorrow where I will present Gimp as an alternative to Photoshop.

There has been only one precompiled Windows Installer for Gimp ever since and I wonder whether it installs a 64 bit or a 32 version of Gimp - or just chooses the adequate (?).

The program's "Help" info is of not much help in regard to this issue. 32 vs. 64 bit software seems to bee a big issue under Window at the moment and will surely provoke questions tomorrow. So could you please enlighten me?

Greetings from Germany Wolfgang Hugemann

Asked and answered, the Windows downloader pulls the one needed if I read Jernej's post right.

No, you read that wrong. The installer from http://www.gimp.org/downloads/ contains both 32 bit and 64 bit versions.

There is no downloader.
