How to use both x32 and x64 python processes (it can be helpfully, if another app GUI is on another bitness than your app)

from pyOpenRPA.Robot import UIDesktop
#Section for robot init
lPyOpenRPA_SettingsDict = {
        "Python32FullPath": "..\\Resources\\WPy32-3720\\python-3.7.2\\python.exe", #Set from user: "..\\Resources\\WPy32-3720\\python-3.7.2\\OpenRPARobotGUIx32.exe"
        "Python64FullPath": "..\\Resources\\WPy64-3720\\python-3.7.2.amd64\\python.exe", #Set from user
        "Python32ProcessName": "pyOpenRPA_UIDesktopX32.exe", #Config set once
        "Python64ProcessName": "pyOpenRPA_UIDesktopX64.exe" #Config set once
}
# Init the pyOpenRPA configuration
UIDesktop.Utils.ProcessBitness.SettingsInit(lPyOpenRPA_SettingsDict)
# Now you can use pyOpenRPA with both bitness.
