Windows 7 x64: incorrect context menu icon background

Hi,

I have recently installed Windows 7 Ultimate x64 on a new machine. I have also installed Salamander (of course!), and Beyond Compare. I noticed a glitch with Salamander, that can be seen below:

In Windows Explorer Context Menu:

In Salamander Context Menu:

I don't know who's to blame, Scooter Software or Altap, but since this happens only in Salamander, I thought I should post this here.
Of course, the problem is only cosmetic...

Thanks for your work!

Another (related?) problem: some context menu items that appear in Explorer don't appear in Salamander's context menu. In my case, it's my text editors, TextPad and EmEditor...

Thank you for the report. I will look at the icons issue.

The missing context menu items will be probably related to x86 vs x64 conflict, see another threads: What next? Vote please: x64 version or UAC support and missing options in file context menu.

What version of Salamander are you using?

I see the problem with Beyond Compare icon on my computer. I also installed latest WinRAR, but the icon is different:

Do you have any idea from where comes your icon?
