Explorer Context Menu integration in 64-bit OS

Post by Kakuri »

As I understand it, the full context menu abilities of XnView can only be integrated into 64-bit XP/Vista/7 if XnView is developed & compiled as a 64-bit app.

What about some simple things though, like "Browse with XnView" for folders and "Open with XnView" for images? I would think those could be done with a simple context menu entry that just launches XnView with parameters. "Browse with XnView" is the way I launch XnView 99% of the time and I am really missing it in Windows 7 64-bit.

Is this possible?

Not sure if you'll get this, but it may help others. Any image, regardless of its association will open if you click its thumbnail in the context menu. My OS is also Vista 64.
