Questions about Upgrading to Win10

Hey guys, I want to upgrade my Windows because currently I have Windows 7 32-bit and I can't use all of my RAM, only 2gb instead of the full 16. I think the cause of that is being on 32-bit, but idk. So my question is would upgrading to Windows 10 give me 64-bit or 32-bit, and can I still upgrade free if my copy of Windows 7 is pirated? Might be a stupid question but I've never dealt with this before.
Yes you're right. You need a 64 bit version for using your full memory. It has something to do with the size of the bus system but nvm :D

But if you can upgrade your pirated version for free is a question which i can't answer :/ sorry my friend!

The 32-bit limitation is 4GB, As for your upgrade.... I believe it would give you the 32-bit version if you upgrade with the windows update they send. I would download the .iso of the 64-bit and go that route just when prompted click upgrade.

As for can you upgrade, as long as you're system says Windows is Genuine at the bottom when you right-click "My Computer" > properties you should be fine.
