The Qt Company doesn't support 32-bit Windows in Qt 6, which means that we'd either have to build our own Qt libraries or keep shipping our 32-bit packages with Qt 5. Microsoft has been deprecating 32-bit support in Windows for a while, and Windows 11 is 64-bit only. We currently offer NSIS, MSI, and PortableApps packages for 32-bit Windows.Ī surprising number (about a quarter) of our downloads are for these packages, but I suspect that the vast majority of those are on systems that run a 64-bit version of Windows.Īssuming that's the case, should we remove official support for 32-bit Windows in the current master (3.7) branch in advance of the 4.0 release?Īt a minimum this would mean removing the CI configuration that builds the NSIS, MSI, and PortableApps packages.ģ2-bit uses would still be able to use the 3.6 packages, which will be supported until at least May 2023.
