I installed the shell extension just fine and I now have a nice little emule icon for my part and part.met files. Unfortunately I'm not actually seeing the information for any of the files. ie: the Title column for the file is blank so I don't know that "001.part" is really "somefile.zip". Nothing extra shows in the tooltips or in the details pane either.

Is this a problem with Windows 7 64 bit, or have I done something wrong, missing something, forgot to turn something on/off?

Anyone managed to get this running successfully and could share how they did it?

So based on http://support.microsoft.com/kb/282423 it's not possible to actually run the shell extension in 64bit windows. Why not put a comment on the emule download page for the shell extension that says "does not work in 64 bit windows" then? Save people time and frustration.
