mp3tag runs great on my 64bit system but not the explorer shell extension.  Any chance of adding 64bit explorer shell right click support? :)

Thanks for the information. I'm not sure why the shell extension doesn't work. Possibly though it is because Explorer is a 64 bit application, and thus cannot load 32 bit code, like the Mp3/Tag Studio shell extension, into its process space. Until I have a 64 bit system to test it on myself though I cannot be sure, so I'm afraid you'll have to hold out until then.  :ashamed:

Thanks.  I found a work-around.  You can run explorer in 32bit mode on a 64bit system by using this command:
%SystemRoot%\syswow64\explorer.exe /separate,/e
I tested it and it works great.
