The last windows version to run 32 bit was windows 10 and there is no 32 bit version of windows 11. So for the steam windows client there is no point supporting a end of life OS.

I am still using windows 10. I upgraded from 11.

Maybe it's just the nostalgia talking, but I think XP would be an even better upgrade.

No steam support. It requires windows 10+.

and windows 10 does offer 64 bit by default, you have to specifically pick the 32 bit option to install it
