64 bit vs. 32 bit Program?

Is there anyway we can see which version of the VLC Media Player is actually installed in our computer? I don't see any useful information under Help-About? Thank you! Sorry if it is an obvious answer, but I just don't see it!

Apparently says nothing about the version in the Help/About ...
32bit:
It is installed in C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC
In the Task Manager/processes is marked as "(32bit)"
64bits:
It is installed in C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC
In the Task Manager/processes does not say "(32bit)"
Obviously it can only be in a x64 system.

I am not familiar with Win64, but I'd assume the bits count is visible in the properties of executable files.

I believe not:
Would be difficult add it in the Help/About?

maybe with
GetBinaryType?
64bits:
It is installed in C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC
In the Task Manager/processes does not say "(32bit)"
Obviously it can only be in a x64 system.
