Been using 32 bit for a long time and noticed I don't have the 64 bit ver of Firefox.

I am concerned I will loose all info when the 64 bit ver. installs to 'Program Files' directory instead of 

Program Files (x86).

I have windows 10 64 bit.

Note that only the Shockwave Flash plugin and Silverlight plugins are enabled for the 64 bit Firefox version. If you need to use other plugins like Java or media players then you need to stay with 32 bit Firefox releases.

Firefox comes in two or more folders on all computers. They are;

Maintenance: (Programs Folder) <Windows Only> Firefox itself: (Programs Folder) And one folder in the profile of each user on the computer.

If you remove the Firefox folder, the user folders would not be affected.
