Re: FW: 32bit shellext code does not work on 64bit system

Kiran,

x64 processed CAN'T load x32 dlls. There is no way you will convince
Explorer.exe to load your dll.
What you need to do is recompile your DLL with x64 as the target
platform and from the setup detect the type of platform and deploy one
DLL or the other.

Also please take notice that there are strong opinions that you should
not develop shell extensions in .Net:
