Installed 2.1.1 64bit by mistake, instead of 32bit.

I was updating Foobar2000 but installed the 64bit by mistake.

I now have 2 versions installed, 2.1 32bit and 2.1.1 64bit.

Can I uninstall 2.1.1 64bit but will this affect 2.1 32bit in any way?

Or is there a better way?  I don't want to lose my settings or installed components.

You can safely uninstall the 64-bit version. Just don't tick any of the optional checkboxes in the uninstaller. There are options to remove the entire install folder, remove version 2.x configuration data, and if applicable, an option to remove pre-2.0 version configuration.
