Microsoft® Windows® 8.1 32-Bit/64-Bit, Traditional Disc and Windows 8.1 Pro? I have looked on numerous websites and cannot find info as to what the differences are. Both are claiming to be "full versions"

Answer

There are two main editions of Windows 8.1:

Windows 8.1 (or what is also known as Windows 8.1 Core or Single Language) for home users

Windows 8.1 Pro (for power users and businesses)

Both are available in 32 and 64 bit editions.

Yes, both are full versions, meaning, they do not require a previous qualifying version of Windows in order to be installed.
