Looks like 2014 was the final 32-bit version.

When I look in MSDN subscriber downloads, I see x86 and x64 versions for SQL Server 2014. However, I don't see it for 2016.

What are the specs (hardware and OS) of the server you're wanting to install on?

Hi,

Thanks for your reply,

But we can't see 32- bit version (Standard edition ) in Microsoft Volume License Server center and one of Microsoft support executive say's that Microsoft stops the 32 - bit version in the SQL Server 2008 R2, that means SQL Server 2008 R2 is the last edition for 32 - bit ?

Please confirm.

Please confirm.

The link I provided is very clear, why do you not accept it?

No.

SQL 2012 had a 32-bit version, so did SQL 2014. The only version that doesn't have a 32-bit version is SQ: 2016.

That said, why do you want to install the 32-bit version?
