In reality MS wont install the wrong type of drivers.

Some programs/drivers on your system can be 32 bit, and WILL be offered

So carry on, let them install

It`s normal.

But you should be checking what each and every update is for before you install it, highlite the update then click More Information over on the right to get a relatively vague description.
