What is the effect of running Blue Prism in a 64-bit mode when the application is also 64-bit?

Running Blue Prism in a 64-bit mode when the application is also 64-bit primarily ensures compatibility between the two systems. This alignment allows Blue Prism to efficiently utilize the application's capabilities, such as accessing larger amounts of memory and taking full advantage of 64-bit processing power. When both the automation tool and the target application are 64-bit, there are fewer issues related to data type mismatches and memory allocation, as both operate within the same architecture.

Additionally, while other aspects like performance and resource consumption can improve due to the nature of 64-bit processing, the central point of having Blue Prism and the application share the same bit version is the enhanced compatibility. This ensures a smoother integration and minimizes potential errors related to data handling, leading to more stable and reliable automation workflows.
