AMD may stop with 32-bit support Radeon Software
You'll be hard pressed to find someone with a 32-bit Windows 10 or 7 install these days, but half a percent of our users still downloads 32-bit drivers. Much like NVIDIA did, it's the end of an era though and currently, there's gossip that AMD will announce stopping 32-bit driver support by end of the month.
After that time frame, you'll probably see some 32-bit releases anyway, for critical updates much like NVIDIA is doing with some hotfix drivers. This story, however, is based on chatter, an anonymous source of Videocardz declares that that at the end of the monthly support is stopped. Since it is within the line of expectation, the news probably is credible. We'll drop AMD a mail to see what their take on this is.

Industry, some still use 16bit application. My two old car-diagnostic notebooks run on Win7 32bit, on is from 2005 and the other on is from 2009
That’s a good thing as I honestly can’t see why you still need 32bit. Support for 32bit applications is basically none existing in today’s life.

AMD does not support Ryzen APUs on 32bit OS for long time. There's reason for it. When BIOS works properly, you can allocate up to 16GB from your RAM just for iGPU.

But they do not require any new driver updates, they will run perfectly with the legacy drivers so further support for 32 bit is unneeded.
