Definitely worth trying, as it may work.

Look in the Windows "Program Files" and "ProgramData" folders to see if there are any folders that have MySQL or MariaDB (or variants thereof) in the name of the folder. If only one SQL is present, TV Server must be using that SQL. If both SQLs are present, I don't know how to determine which SQL is the one that TV Server is using.

Eliminating 32-bit MP before installing 64-bit MP is least likely to lead to problems. Some points:
After eliminating 32-bit MP, perform a first-time install of 64-bit MP 1.33 followed by an upgrade install from MP 1.33 to MP 1.35.
You could try saving relevant config files before uninstalling 32-bit MP, and then restoring them after installing 64-bit MP. Actually, the simplest solution is to copy the entire "ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\" folder to a different location, then you will have available all possible config files that you might need. I would suggest not renaming that folder, as then it would not be available for the uninstaller to uninstall.
