The Win32 is hardly downloaded.
 
 
Planning only to make Win64 available.
 
 
Please comment.

I'm one of the few persons who are still downloading the Win32 version.
 
 
I'm using Apache as server for several application modules (ISAPI-DLLs) and a few of them still have some 32 bit dependencies.
 
 
Thank you very much for the work providing apache binaries.

Hi,
 
 
For Wampserver, I always use 32 and 64 bit versions.
 
 
Without 32bit versions, it will be less work for me, like for MariaDB.
 
 
No, I'm joking    |

I wanted to chime in saying that we still use Win32 on many servers and it will take some time for us to move to Win64 due to plugins compatibility.
 
 
I will let my team knows about your desire to drop Win32 support and we will look at a plan to move to Win64 asap.
 
 
Thank you for your hard work ! |

I not agree!
 
I use the Win32 version and I hope that it still continue to be present and updated. |

Thanks for the replies. 
 
 
Plan now to make VS17 available in September. 
 
Only Win64
 
 
VS16 remains Win32 and Win64. 
 
 
The current VC15 is the last one, no updates anymore. |
