Research direction
Start by opening Settings and the My specs view in the Improved YouTube extension, then reproduce the report in Firefox on 64-bit Windows. Trace the software-information display to identify why bitness is shown as 32-bit; done means the view reports the installed 64-bit Windows environment correctly.
