I put NTLinks.wdx64 near the NTLinks.wdx (which is installed) and restart TC. TC doesn't load plugin.
It seems that TC doesn't install 64-bit analogs of installed 32-bit plugins into ContentPlugins64 section automatically. I tried to remove this section after placing NTLinks.wdx64 and restart TC - same thing.
When I start TC with clean INI and install plugin, it works fine. I see that TC modifies section ContentPlugins64.
How user can tell to TC that it should rescan ContentPlugins section and install 64-bit analogs of installed 32-bit plugins?
Maybe you should add a rescan button to plugins page of configuration dialog? And how $checksum$ keys in 64-bit plugin sections work?
TCx64 doesn't see 64-bit analog of installed 32-bit plugin

TC recreates the list of 64-bit plugins under the following conditions:
1. The user auto-installs the plugin
or
2. The user adds a plugin via plugins dialog, or clicks OK there
or
3. The ini section for the plugin changes
None of the above is the case for you, so TC cannot know that something was changed. This problem will only affect plugin writers, users who install a plugin update will not see this problem.

I think there are some or many users who will just unpack single file from archive instead of reinstalling it (I'm do so very often). And there will be a problem.
Also it is quite hard to understand which plugins can work with 64-bit version since them all are listed together. I think plugins w/o 64-bit analogs should be grayed so user can easilly detect ones that need to be upgraded.

Is it possible to install a plugin only in TC8x64 and not in TC8x86? Thus can we install 32bit plugin and 64 bit plugin in different directories? I did not figure it out.
