Do Common Screen Recorders Come in 32- and 64-bit Versions Respectively?

No. Most of general standalone screen recording programs for desktop only have one installer, which is claimed compatible with both 32-bit and 64-bit system versions.

Then why don't they offer two versions for 32-bit and 6-bit systems severally?

In the first place, you must know that theoretically and it's also proven to be true that all those one-installer-available apps are actually 32-bit ones. If you run them on 64-bit OS, you will see the process name has a 32bit postfix under Task Manager -> Processes. Therefore, by reason of 32-bit apps are all workable on 64-bit systems as long as the system version is supported, developing and releasing a single installation package for both 32-bit and 64-bit systems but not two separately is not only friendly to newbie users to download and setup, but also ideal for software to be continuously compatible with the older PCs.

Surely, a very few screen recorders have provided two downloads for 32 and 64 bit. Taking the most advanced open source screen recorder OBS Studio for example, it always keeps two installers in the same version number on its Windows download page.
