node js to check 32 bit
Checking if Node.js is 32-bit
To check if Node.js is 32-bit, you can follow these steps:
- Open a terminal or command prompt on your computer.
- Type the following command and press Enter:
node -p process.arch
This command will print the architecture of the Node.js process running on your system.
- If the output is
x86
,ia32
, orwin32
, it means that you are running a 32-bit version of Node.js. If the output isx64
orarm64
, it means that you are running a 64-bit version of Node.js.
Note: The specific architecture names may vary depending on your operating system.
- You can also check the Node.js installation directory to determine if it is a 32-bit or 64-bit version. By default, the 32-bit version of Node.js is installed in the
Program Files (x86)
directory on Windows.
Example Output:x64
This indicates that you are running a 64-bit version of Node.js.
Please note that the above steps assume you already have Node.js installed on your system. If you don't have Node.js installed, you can download and install it from the official Node.js website.
