I am trying to upgrade from 32 bit to 64 bit of Windows 10 without loosing data. I looked up my processor specs and they mention that 64 bit is supported. So, I installed the installer to a Pen Drive an got it running. Once I get to the part for choosing the disk and partition, I cannot choose anything because Windows 10 x64 requires an GPT disk but the disks are MBR. Any tutorials I've followed don't have this issue. I tried to convert the disk with some external tools but they refuse to convert because GPT is not supported by 32 bit operating systems.

Is there a way to upgrade 32 bit windows 10 to 64 bit without data loss.

Not exactly.

You have to back up all your data, documents, email and any favorites and like data that is important to you.

You then have to format (wipe clean) your machine and do a fresh install of Windows 10 64-bit.

That is the only way to do this.
