Description

Start in Native Mode(64 Bit)

Runs ETS in its full native 64-bit environment, providing maximum performance, improved stability, and access to the system’s full memory capacity.
Use this mode for all normal workflows, including large projects, heavy processing, and plug-in operations that support 64-bit execution.

Notes:
If ETS was previously forced into 32-bit (compatibility) mode for plug-in reasons but now launches natively, ETS will display a hint indicating that compatibility mode is temporarily active and will be disabled on the next clean startup.

More information here.

Start in Compatibility Mode

Runs ETS in 32-bit compatibility mode, designed for legacy plug-ins or extensions that do not yet support 64-bit.
Use this mode only when required by older add-ons or environments with known compatibility constraints.

Notes:

Performance and memory capacity are lower than in native mode. ETS will restart in 32-bit mode immediately after selecting this option. Compatibility mode can be temporary; ETS will confirm when it will revert back to native mode on the next startup.

Also, when a user starts ETS in compatibility mode, an icon is now displayed to indicate that ETS is running in compatibility mode in ETS Dashboard.

More information about 32 bit and 64 bit, you can check here.
