Full 64-bit (x64) support
Directory Opus now comes in two separate versions– the classic, 32-bit x86 version for 32-bit versions of Windows, and the new x64 version for 64-bit versions of Windows.
Apart from being a native 64-bit application, there should be little or no difference between the two versions - all of the significant issues encountered when running the 32-bit version on an x64 OS should now be resolved. A couple of minor points for people using the 64-bit version:
As yet, we do not have a 64-bit native ZIP library (or RAR library), and so the x64 version of Opus uses the 32-bit libraries via a COM proxy. Therefore, you may notice an additional (32-bit) process running called dopusx64.exe.
Not all of the Opus plugins are available in 64-bit yet – these will be progressively converted. As of December, specifically the ActiveX (docs) plugin, which provides support for Word and other Office Documents is not yet available for 64-bit users.
The x64 installer includes the 32-bit binaries, for use with the USB export feature. When exporting to a USB device in the 64-bit version, you will be prompted to choose which version to export. It probably makes more sense to export the 32-bit version to USB as the 64-bit version can only run on a 64-bit OS.
Improved folder thumbnail support
Directory Opus now supports the Explorer system for assigning a specific image to a folder thumbnail (via Properties / Customize).
Opus also now can display folder thumbnails for ZIP files (that is, the thumbnail for a ZIP file will display miniature thumbnails of the first four files inside the ZIP.)
The mini-thumbs displayed on a folder thumbnail are now chosen in date order (newest first) rather than alphabetical order.
Improved context menu handling
The handling of third-party context menu extensions has been improved to be more compatible. Additionally, if a fault is triggered by a context menu extension handler and Opus is able to catch it, a warning dialog is now displayed that gives you the option of blocking that context menu extension permanently, or ignoring any further errors.
Rename improvements
A couple of minor changes to file renaming:
When renaming files inline, files are not resorted until inline rename mode is exited. This means that you can use the cursor keys to move up and down the file list and make multiple changes to filenames without the files jumping around as they are automatically resorted. When inline rename mode is exited, the list is automatically resorted.
The Advanced Rename dialog has a new option called Rename matching filenames as one. When this is enabled, files with the same stem are treated as one when performing wildcard or other batch renames. For example, if you had files called 01012.JPG and 01012.WAV, and performed a sequential renumber rename, both files would get the same new name (except for file extension), instead of being numbered differently.
