that's for windows, right?

i was asking for macOS, but in fact I could and should expand the question
to all systems!

So y'all can also answer me why you need 32 builds of windows/linux, if it
has to do with externals only being available for 32 bits. Cause my main
concern is to upgrade "relevant" libraries. But I mentioned macOS cause
that's where I can really help most.

cheers
