My wife needs IE on her new WIn10 machine set to 32-bit mode to work with the VPN at the hospital.

I'm sure this is a relatively easy fix.  Can anyone walk me thru it?

Thanks!

As per this page, try creating a shortcut pointing to iexplore.exe in program files x86.  Apparently the process will show as 64-bit but the child processes hosting the actual tabs will be 32-bit.

Hard to find info on this.

I'm guessing that she already d/led and installed IE on the computer since Win10 actually uses a new browser (Edge) that replaces IE?
