Has there been a 64-bit version released yet? Their site seems to indicate there hasn't.

No 64-bit version, but 64-bit shell extensions are supported.
Sort of. You have to select from the initial right-click menu that you want the 64-bit menu, then viola!
So it's not exactly seamless, but it's a step in the right direction if 64-bit extension support is important to you (personally, I consider it a bug for the software that's installing the extension if it doesn't install both the 32-bit and 64-bit extensions on a 64-bit system).

FYI, you can also configure it to show the 64-bit menu immediately. So it actually supports both worlds of shell extensions -- a rare thing to find.

Thanks for the tip - I didn't know that (obviously)!

Glad it's a step in the right direction, but I'm a little disappointed. I think XYplorer is the last hold-out among the major file manager players to not have a 64-bit version.
mwb1100:
With the information that 64-bit shell extensions are supported with a config option, I can't think of a reason that the main program needs to be 64-bit.
Other than to say that it's 64-bit. I don't think there's any functional reason for it. Or am I missing something?
