Dear George!

Thank you very much for the 64-bits binaries of Vim. I have just installed Windows XP x64 and your version of Vim. The only thing I couldn't do is install the "Edit with Vim..." entry on the right-click pop-up.

I did what you described, I've set a %VIM% variable to where my Vim was uncompressed and ran install.exe. The option 14 says it will install the right-click context menu, but it doesn't. Is there anything I could do to solve it? That right-click context menu was very useful. =)

Thank you very much for your attention and for your help.

I'm sorry, but I don't have access to a Win64 system at the moment, so there's no easy way for me to check out what you're saying. I don't know if it's a problem with the installer or with gvimext.dll.

You may be able to get what you want by creating a vim.reg file with contents like this:
====================
REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\Shell\Open with Vim\command]
@="\"c:\\Program Files\\Vim\\vim70\\gvim.exe\" \"%1\""
====================

I think a similar issue came up on the Vim Developers list recently, so I'm CCing that.
