Does updating Cygwin 32-bit to 64-bit require Cygwin client update?

We have systems using Cygwin 32-bit application. Now we have to update it to 64-bit due to the server changes. Does this require the Cygwin client to be updated as well?

Thanks for any helps!

Not clear what you mean as Cygwin client.

The Cygwin 32 bit distribution is not anymore updated and only the 64 bit version is currently managed.

So install it using the setup-x86_64.exe as provided at
