QGroundControl can be installed on 64 bit versions of Windows:

1. Download QGroundControl-installer.exe linked above.

2. Double click the executable to launch the installer.

The Windows installer creates 3 shortcuts: QGroundControl, GPU Compatibility Mode, GPU Safe Mode. Use the first shortcut unless you experience startup or video rendering issues. For more information see Troubleshooting QGC Setup > Windows: UI Rendering/Video Driver Issues. Prebuilt QGroundControl versions from 4.0 onwards are 64-bit only. It is possible to manually build 32 bit versions (this is not supported by the dev team).
