Mysql running in 32 bit emulation

[moppentappers]

Hello,

By default, MySQL is running in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Parallels\Plesk\Databases folder, which makes it restricted to the 2GB limit.
How can I overcome this issue without interferring with the current and future functioning of Plesk?

Can I just install MySQL 64 bit and move the database files to the new location?

Actually it is up to you what version of MySQL 32 or 64 bit you use on Plesk server. You can safely use 64 bit version.
You can dump databases on 32bit version and then restore them on new 64bit version of MySQL.
