How do I know if a software is 64bit or 32bit (x64 or x32)

I wanted to install J2ME and configure it with Netbeans. I followed two different tutorials word by word but somehow mine would give me many errors. After so much searching I realized that the JDK, Netbeans and J2ME must all be of the same level ie. all to be of x32 or all to be of x64. Now, how do I know what level is each of them at? How do I know if NetBeans is x32 or x64, as well as JDK and J2ME?

I am using JDK 1.8, Netbeans 8.2, J2ME 3.4

For Netbeans and J2ME just open them, then open the Task Manager. On the list of Apps, the version of the software is shown as shown below.

Task Manager

About JDK, Open your C Drive and look for the installation folder of your JDK. If it is installed in the Program File folder then it is x64, if it is in the Program File(x86) then it is x32.

For Java, you can do java -version, and it'll tell you what version you have.

I did a quick look around for the other two but couldn't find anything immediately. However, if you search something like "check bit version for Netbeans/J2ME" then you might get it.

Another way to figure out would be based on your OS. Depending on how new/old it is, it might require certain bit version. You probably installed the correct one (or you should uninstall and re-install the correct one based on their respective installation guide), so you should know what bit version when you first installed.
