64 Bit Sims 4

[Marish01]

64 bit Sims 4 vs 32 bit.  I recently noticed on a reinstall of the Sims 4 that the shortcut dropped on the desktop pointed to the 32 bit executable.  A 64 bit executable also exists in the game folder.  Is there any advantage to pointing a shortcut directly at the 64 bit executable?  Or does the 32 bit call automatically the 64 bit?  Depending on the answer one might also question whether the Origin launcher points or checks or picks or something at between those 2 .exe files.

I don't think it makes a difference as Origin decided what's being launched.

You can check in the task manager though which version runs for you.

Good Idea.  I've missed Task Manager, old friend.

BTW, Origin launcher does call the 64 bit.
