Folder contents in Vista, Slamander vs Windows Explorer

Hi,
When I view the directory C:\Windows\system32\drivers, Altap Salamander v2.51 is not showing me all the files and directories.
If I use the Windows explorer to look at the same directory, it is showing me a lot more files and one extra directory (etc).
I'm running Windows Vista Ultimate x64 as administrator with UAC disabled.
Please see the attached screenshot.
The same thing happens with "Find files and Directories". Altap Salamander is not finding files which windows search is finding.

Can you please tell me if I have an option set incorrectly, or what I must do to fix this problem?

Thanks in advance, Robert

Hi Robert, Altap Salamander 2.51 is 32-bit application and there are some restrictions for 32-bit applications running on 64-bit Windows.

We will do our best to release Altap Salamander 2.53 in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions to address these limitations.

More information about file system restrictions: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa384187.aspx

OK, Thanx

Hello Jan,
Thank you for your reply.
I have read the item at MSDN and the problem is clear.
Hope you will keep up the good work and release a 64bit version in the near future.
