I see #359 there is lot of messy in dual-arch and For windows consider only distributing 64-bit versions in document.
But most of my users are not experienced at computer, they don't know to upgrade their os arch and 32-bit is still in high-percentage. then .. I can't just provide 64-bit only version.

Is there any way to provide both 32-bit and 64-bit windows release?
I see #190 there is a RELEASES-ia32 fix to do that, but I can't find any document to use that.

  1. which server should I use, any prefer between Nuts, Electron Release Server or Squirrel Updates Server ?
  2. I use AppVeyor, Publishing Artifacts, and remoteRelease with github releases. as wiki exampled appveyor.yml it only contains 64-bit build. what should I do if I want AppVeyor build both version and push them to github without conflict?
  3. should I use NSIS ? (and to do what)

NSIS allows you to build ONE installer that contains both arch. #529 Will be fixed soon.

Squirrel Updates Server if you decide to use Squirrel.Windows. But I suggest to use NSIS — #529 will be fixed next week.
