    Due to the limitations of other business applications that may not have been upgraded or can not be upgraded, many business users are forced to stay with a 32-bit Windows.

    By limiting the Personal gateway to only 64-bit, it prevents the use of this feature by those that may be best argue for upgrades to other applications by using Power BI to show the metrics and other data to make the business case for being current.

    I agree, we still are using 32-bit OS and this would help us!

    I agree here that something needs to be built to accommodate 32-bit programs/windows and a gateway for refresh purposes.

    Thanks! :)

    We want to create a service and link to Microsoft service. Without Gateway there no auto refresh, no auto refresh means no service. Many data source forces developers to use 32 bit ODBC drivers. We adapt and Microsoft should do the same.
