If you need to run a 32-bit version of VS Code, both a 32-bit Installer and Zip archive are available. See the Download Visual Studio Code page for a complete list of available installation options. This also means that VS Code will be available to all users in the system. The system setup requires elevation to Administrator privileges and will place the installation under Program Files. User setup also provides a smoother background update experience. Installing the user setup does not require Administrator privileges as the location will be under your user Local AppData (LOCALAPPDATA) folder. VS Code provides both Windows user and system level setups.

You will need to restart your console after the installation for the change to the %PATH% environmental variable to take effect. Tip: Setup will add Visual Studio Code to your %PATH%, so from the console you can type 'code.
