This bug is probably valid for all versions.
I have pinned 64-bit executable to the taskbar and I see correct icon with "64" number for inactive application. When I start the TC the icon turn into simple one without "64". The same ico I see in Alt-Tab and in TC's window header. Is this behaviour intentional?

It's probably a caching problem in Explorer. Sometimes it helps to detach the running program from Explorer, close it, start it again, and reattach it. But sometimes Explorer will keep the wrong icon even then. There are procedures to delete the Explorer icon cache on the net, but I wouldn't do that for such a simple change.

I investigated it deeper. When a fresh install is used everything is OK. The problem is that I prefere to see Win7 styled folder and file icons in my Win10 environment, not Win10 from explorer nor winXP fashioned from totalcmd.exe. So I have created my own icon library and used IconLib=%COMMANDER_PATH%\fileicons7.icl switch in INI file. Unfortuntely, both 32 and 64 bit executables uses the same library where at first position is TCMD icon without "64". This is a clue. How can I solve it?

I see - you could use %COMMANDER_EXE% instead of %COMMANDER_PATH%, and name the dlls differently, e.g.
%COMMANDER_EXE%.icl
Then name the two files totalcmd64.exe.icl and totalcmd.exe.icl.
%COMMANDER_EXE%.icl
Then name the two files totalcmd64.exe.icl and totalcmd.exe.icl.
