Vista 32 vs 64 Bit Back Up

Running Vista Ultimate 32 bit version... if I create a file back up (not a
full system back up) with the 32 bit version of Vista on an external hard
drive, and install the 64-bit version of Ultimate... will I be able to
restore the folders and files from the archive using advanced restore ?

Yes, you will. Not a problem at all there.

Re: Vista 32 vs 64 Bit Back Up

Can I upgrade from Ultimate 32bit to 64bit by doing a complete backup and then installing 64bit and restoring from the backup? If so, any advice on the procedures? Thanks.
