SQL Server 2014 64-bit version 12.0.5223.6 Express Edition to SQL Server 2014 32-bit version 12.0.6024.0
A cross upgrade 64 bit => 32 bit is not possible.
What exactly did you install? By the build numbers it was just a service pack 3.
Accidentally upgrade to SQL Server 2014 32-bit

Hi all,
Recently, I have accidentally upgraded from SQL Server 2014 64-bit version 12.0.5223.6 Express Edition to SQL Server 2014 32-bit version 12.0.6024.0
By right, I'm suppose to install using 64-bit unfortunately I made a mistake.
I tried to uninstall the upgraded version from the image below but it gave me an error.
Regards,
Atrix

2021-04-20T07:51:55.353+00:00 I was able to install the KB4022619 patch SQLEXPR_x32 setup.exe successfully but not SQLEXPR_64 setup.exe. Error shown as " There are no features selected for upgrade". If I were to upgrade to a later build version 12.0.6164.21, it can only install successfully using 32-bit. The 64-bit installer will show error as "There are no SQL server instances or shared features that can be updated on this computer"

You have a 32 bit SQL Server and so you can only apply 32 bit service packs; installing SQLEXPR_x32 is quite enough in your enviroment.
