Step 3: The Troubleshooting Information page opens in a new tab, and you can see a form under the Application Basics section. Look at the User Agent row, in which it tells if your Firefox is 32-bit or 64-bit. A Win64; x64 entry indicates that you are running the 64-bit Firefox. WOW64 will appear if your Firefox is 32-bit.

This is an unusual method, but it also helps you to tell if you are running 32-bit or 64-bit Firefox on your Windows 10.

Step 1: Open the File Explorer, and go to the local disk where your Windows 10 operating system is installed (generally it’s the disk C).

Step 2: Open the system disk, and then open the Program Files (x86) folder. Check if a folder named Mozilla Firefox is located under the Program Files (x86) folder. If the Mozilla Firefox folder is under the Program Files (x86) folder, it indicates that you are running a 32-bit Firefox; otherwise, you are running a 64-bit Firefox.
