Hi,
I'm using the latest version of Xrecode64 on W10 64 bit - 1.102.
Shell integration is present - I can see, edit and create new menus (witihin xrecode) for windows explorer.
Only problem is that nothing happens when I select the menu options in explorer, xrecode doesn't start or load the files (if already running).
I have disabled and re-enabled shell integration and un-installed and re-installed xrecode. xrecide opens if I double click on a file.
(Xrecode is set to run with admin privileges)
It has worked at some point in the past for me, but I don't know how long ago that was.
Grateful for any suggestions
Thanks

Have you tried to run it in non admin mode? Program does not require admin rights.

Hi,
Thanks - that worked. Seems strange that having admin permissions stops it
(i didn't give it admin rights, it was set in properties after install - maybe inherited from an older installation?)
Cheers

Re: Explorer Shell Integration present but doesn't function
Great. What was happening was that shell extension (running in explorer as a normal program) was trying to send message to program (running as admin) and that does not work in Windows, because of the security.
Re: Explorer Shell Integration present but doesn't function
Xrecode doesn't show up in Explorer Integration for Windows 10. It used to. I have switched it back and forth from/to admin priviledges. It still doesn't work. How do I make it show up in Explorer?
Re: Explorer Shell Integration present but doesn't function
Did you install the proper version, i.e. 64 bit version on the 64 bit windows?
Re: Explorer Shell Integration present but doesn't function
Yes, and I just reinstalled it and there is no option in the Explorer dropdown menu for anything about xrecode. It used to work.
Re: Explorer Shell Integration present but doesn't function
ShellExView (by NirSoft) shows no entries for xrecode. Is there code to add it manually via regedit? I don't understand why it isn't there and there is no reference to it. I have the current version 1.105.

You could try to register it manually.
Start the cmd as administrator and then enter those commands
