bitcoin-qt client -> can i move the profile files from 32bit to 64 bit client?

[thedrs]

Hi,
I have an old wallet and transactions on a 32 bit bitcoin-qt client.
I upgraded the client to version 11.0 , every time it loads it does a new rescan which takes a long time and at the end it crashes
All this is on a virtual box vm.

I have on my host another bitcoin at version 11 but it is 64 bits.

Will i be able to transfer all my profile files to the 64 bit version ? (wallet.dat, and the file the holds the transaction labels i had there are the most important)

What i am actually asking is "are the data files the same format in 32bit and 64 bit" ?

Thanks

Yes.

To write a little more and to remove the need to trust my word, just test it out. Assuming your 64-bit core is synced, just close it, renamed the wallet.dat file to wallet.dat.old and put the wallet.dat from the 32-bit system in its place. Now start bitcoin core. It will need to rescan the blockchain in order to find all TX that belong to the wallet though. The TX labels should also be part of the wallet.dat file. At least they came with my last system migration and the wallet.dat file was all I moved.
