In Mojave, press the option key and menu : System Information… Software : Legacy Software. Do not overlook Software : Applications to see the version of software installed and whether it is Yes or No for 64-bit category.


Not all software, depending on how it was installed, will show up in either of the above categories. GIMP, or GNU Emacs are good examples of MIA, but recent releases are 64-bit anyway.
