You have still installed this shell extension in your TEMP directory? Are you using Altap Salamander 2.51?

Just curious, on my machine with Windows XP installed 2.2.2002 is %SYSTEMROOT%\ShellExt still empty and never used. Maybe it is the right directory provided for this purpose by Microsoft, but it seems to me that nobody use it.

By accident I encounter first program which use %SYSTEMROOT%\ShellExt folder: http://home.worldonline.dk/ninotech/freeutil.htm
It is called Ninotech Date Edit 4.0 and it is a shell extension for Windows that enables you to change the date and time (the timestamp) of your files.

C:\WINDOWS\system32\ShellExt\DateEd32.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ShellExt\DateEdit.hlp
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ShellExt\DateEdit.inf
