Subject: Re: Windows 7 and Flash Renamer
Date: Thu, 12 Nov 2009 18:55:00 +0100First, make sure to upgrade to 6.3 in which I have fixed some Win7 issues with the context menu. As far as I know it should work. But:
The right click menu does not work on 64bit Windows version. This is because 32bit and 64bit processes can not be mixed. A possible workaround is to use the 32bit version of Windows Explorer. You can find out more about this problem and solution on this page.
