RWS have responded and explained many times why we have not moved to 64-bit yet.  Let me try again... imagine you have a car (let's call it Car A) with a standard 4-cylinder engine, which represents a 32-bit software application.  This car is designed to work efficiently and smoothly with this particular engine, providing a good balance of performance and fuel efficiency.  Now, let's say there's another car (Car B) with a powerful 8-cylinder engine, representing a 64-bit software application.  Car B is designed to utilize the power of its engine, leading to better performance and a more enjoyable driving experience.

Now, if you were to take the 8-cylinder engine from Car B and try to fit it into Car A without making any other modifications, it wouldn't make much sense.  The engine would not fit properly, and even if you managed to get it in, Car A would not be able to make the most out of the new engine's capabilities.  The car's transmission, suspension, and other systems would not be optimized to handle the extra power, leading to a poor driving experience and potential damage to the car.

Similarly, creating a 64-bit version of a software application without optimizing the core code to support it can lead to inefficiencies and poor performance.  The 64-bit architecture allows for larger memory addresses and better processing capabilities, but if the core code is not designed to take advantage of these features, the application may not perform any better than its 32-bit counterpart, and may even suffer from compatibility issues or increased resource usage. In some cases, it might even perform worse than the original 32-bit version.

Therefore, it's essential to ensure that the core code of a software application is optimized to support the 64-bit architecture before creating a 64-bit version. This will enable the application to fully utilize the benefits of the 64-bit platform, leading to better performance and a more efficient use of system resources.

So you can criticise us for not doing this faster if it helps you, but please rest assured that we get a little bit closer to delivering this improvement with all the right enhancements in place to take advantage of it with every release.  I cannot tell you when this will happen as I am not a developer, nor do I work for the development teams.  However, I do know that there is work progressing with every release and we have explained this many times, even in this thread.  So at least criticise us for the right reasons.  It may also help to read everything before making comments like this.

Hi Markus, I think you might be inadvertently posting in the wrong places and also looking in the wrong places.  This is not a forum, it's an ideas section of the community.  I think this is your post:  How to preserve segment status from XTM file when importing to Trados? 

Did Paul and Daniel Brockmann ever respond? I see you posted this 4 years ago, but I don't see a response from them, or anyone from RWS involved with Trados development, speaking about when users can expect 64-bit. 

How was this posted in 2017, and Trados is still 32-bit? I prefer Trados over other programs in most regards, but that SDL/RWS can't be bothered to respond to what customers have been asking for for years is frustrating. 64-bit would make a difference when working with massive files.

I wonder, I had a whole thread of mine being deleted. All I did was ask for support on some XTM files, maybe the forum's software is glitching.
