    This is not relevant to the missing 32-bit version of the platform. Commented Sep 27, 2017 at 9:18
  • Can you clarify what you mean by not relevant? My answer specifically said that neither the client nor the server VMs are available for 32-bit (Windows). Commented Sep 27, 2017 at 15:34

    Suspension of support for 32-bit platforms refers to the -client option. Only the -server option is left. As a matter of fact, I looked at the 64-bit version (1.8.0_141 for linux) -client also missing. While the 32-bit (1.8.0_144-b01 again for Linux) option is available. Obviously, the 64-bit versions of -client have already been removed and are now removing 32-bit versions. But the very existence of the explanation of what is removed from the 32-bit platform is a sign that it exists. Commented Sep 28, 2017 at 6:23
