For the moment I have been able to download and install the 64Bit version.

I have been using Calibre for Windows 10 for years now and I would like to continue to do so.
As Jon asked, if your machine is capable of running 64 bit code, why not use calibre x64? Other than being able to handle processes that need more memory, the differences are pretty much non-existent.

As for installing the 32 bit version, it sounds as if you are going to need to use Run as Administrator. I seem to remember that if you use Run as Administrator on a command prompt (search for cmd.exe, click on Run as Administrator), you can type the name of a .msi installer and the install will inherit the privileges.
