Is there a plan to start compiling a 64 bit version of TotalCommander for Windows 7? Most new computers are coming out with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. The problem is becoming that it will not run 32 bit programs unless you upgrade to the Professional version (which many would not do). For Windows developers, their programs and utilities, this is no big deal because we just select 64 bit for compiling our own programs and utilities and 5 years from now, basic utilities, anything worth keeping will all be 64 bits, for the superior performance if nothing else. There is not a good 64 bit alternative to TC (nor a 32 bit alternative for that case). It has way too much capability.
What are the plans for 64 bit (specifically Windows).

Interesting. Where did you read such a nonsense?The problem is becoming that it will not run 32 bit programs unless you upgrade to the Professional version
Are you talking about Windos-XP mode?
Be sure, TC and many other 32Bit programs (e.g. like MS-Office) can be installed and used without any problems in any Windows x64 version.
There are some points like context menu and redirection that are a little bit different in 32bit file managers; on the other side a 64bit file manager can't use 32bit plugins.
