Total Commander (English) • install path Roaming versus Program Files? and just 64-bit?

Sorry for my naive question. I may have messed up my installation of Total Commander. I may have to delete and reinstall. I don't want to repeat my mistakes.

Q1. But first, please remind me why there is a combined 32-bit + 64-bit version of TC? Is it just because old plugins might not work?

Q2. Also, are my files below in the correct location?
Ini-file: "C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\GHISLER\wincmd.ini".
License: "C:\Program Files\totalcmd\WINCMD.KEY".
Plugins folder: "C:\Program Files\totalcmd\plugins".

Q3. And do these variables look OK:
C:\Program Files\totalcmd>set
ALLUSERSPROFILE=C:\ProgramData
APPDATA=C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming
COMMANDER_DRIVE=C:
COMMANDER_EXE=C:\Program Files\totalcmd\TOTALCMD64.EXE
COMMANDER_INI=C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\GHISLER\wincmd.ini
COMMANDER_INSTANCE=1
COMMANDER_PATH=C:\Program Files\totalcmd
COMMANDER_SESSIONNAME=user

Those may seem obvious, but I read that some users prefer this:
COMMANDER_EXE=C:\totalcmd\TOTALCMD64.EXE

Furthermore, there are discussions of permissions such that you can't easily tweak plugins. I wonder whether plugins should be in AppData\Roaming\Ghisler

Many thanks.
