I currently use Thunderbird 91.11.0 32 bit on Windows 11. I would like to move on to 102 as and when that becomes a stable release. Should I just download the 64 bit MSI update and will it keep all my current settings etc. I notice in my profile that it still shows my Windows version as 10 and not 11.

Technically, WIn 11 still shows internally as Win 10, so that's a nit. I suggest NOT installing 102, but wait until it is more stable. You could then uninstall the 32-bit version and install 64-bit version. Your profile should be fine, but I always recommend doing a backup prior to any major switch.
