Hi

I have a problem with installing diff-ext on Windows 7 64-bit:

The error is:
"Unable to register the DLL/OCX: LoadLibrary failed; code 193.
%1 is not a valid Win32 application."

Here's the image:

Any thoughts on how to fix this? Instructions for manually registering needed DLLs?

What installer was used? It looks like it was 32-bit version of diff-ext.

You're right. I used diff_ext-1.9.1-i386-UNICODE.exe instead of diff-ext-1.9.1-AMD64-UNICODE.exe. The later works perfectly.
I was fooled by the "AMD" part, since I have an Intel processor. I didn't thought that it's AMD64 architecture anyway.
Maybe you could add info on the website that it's not AMD-specific version, or drop the AMD part altogether to avoid confusion. The "IA64" is different enough from "64" imho.

Anyway, thanks for this very handy tool, and a prompt reply.
