Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. But you know the health situation, so you're probably used it it by now.

The "real" versions (even pre-release versions) are available on the GitHub Releases Page too. Downloading from the VSIX Gallery is mainly for debugging etc.

I had put off creating a new 64-bit entry in the hope that Microsoft would get their act together & make it so both 32-bit & 64-bit could co-exist in the same entry. Otherwise an extension that has 3K+ installs starts at 0 again. Unless I'm missing something it looks like they still haven't done that :-(

Seeing as this is the first time this has been brought to my attention, I guess virtually nobody (except me & you) have the 64-bit version installed in VS 2022 :-( :-( :-(

I only noticed it this week when I created a new VM, the old VM ran out of space. Yeah, so we are the only real users of it.

I got a 404 today, wanting to download it. Could you update the link in the readme https://www.vsixgallery.com/extension/96b389fd-48b6-48d9-bbf2-ec6ebd026b14 to https://github.com/luminous-software/start-page-plus-64-bit/releases respectively? TY. Now to download and try... :)
