Hello. Any chance Free commander will have native x64 support in the future?
I find it remarkably useful however its is noticeable on Windows 7 x64 that there are some difficulties with the contextual menu (right click).

Re: x64 support
First a 64 bit Delphi version is needed.
Re: x64 support
Free Commander is developed in Delphi?
Weird. Would have never though of that. In that case its pretty obvious that there is not going to be a 64bit version

Re: x64 support
From what I understood, it will be. Delphi 64 bit is being worked on.

Re: x64 support
in case you need 64 today, ask for the pascal source code, do some changes and compile it yourself using this compiler:

many cool apps were written in delphi, but for years embarcarcadero seems incapable to roll out a 64 bit version. maybe in the next version Delphi XE2...

Re: x64 support
Page http://www.embarcadero.com/products/delphi is telling: "Deliver fast, native 32-bit and 64-bit applications. Embarcadero Delphi XE2, now with FireMonkey, is the fastest way to deliver ultra-rich and visually stunning native applications for Windows, Mac and iOS – including 64-bit Windows applications."
But could you please be so very kind and tell us FreeCommander lovers clearly whether or not there IS going to be a 64-bit FC and if there is, any ideas WHEN. Been waiting for a long, long time...
Thank you, everyone - and especially Marek!

Re: x64 support
from what I can tell FC XE is compiled with Delphi XE, so maybe FC XE2 compiled with Delphi XE2 will bring you native 64 bit support. anyway, don't expect too much, you probably won't notice any performance improvements over 32 bit, besides your doing a lot of 'internal' packing/unpacking maybe. for the latter I use 7zip, there's a 64 bit version available.
one thing I'm really looking forward though, is dumping "FcContextMenu64.exe" which doesn't work well for me.
