Vista-64 Context Menu & Send-To aren't

[Mordachai]

I've been hoping for a while that my trusted and much loved TextPad would develop support for context menu and send-to menu integration for Vista 64. Currently, neither of these features works.

I assume that Vista 64 requires that applications place their extensions in some 64 bit alternative registry location in order to add context menus and such?

At any rate, I recall other programs suffering from this.

Alternately, Helios could compile a native 64 bit version of TextPad, and I'll bet good money that this would just work (Vista wouldn't virtualize the registry forcing its changes to be meaningless).
