That has nothing to do with 32 vs 64 bits. PgAdmin uses pg_restore to restore a backup, and pg_restore knows nothing about plain backup. It can only work with binary backup (ie tar, custom, or directory). You'll have to do a backup again, this time in one of the binary formats. Or use psql to restore your backup.
