StuffIt Shell Extension 64-bit patch

Overview

StuffIt Shell Extension 64-bit patch is a software program developed by Smith Micro Software. Upon being installed, the software adds a Windows Service which is designed to run continuously in the background. Manually stopping the service has been seen to cause the program to stop functing properly. It adds a background controller service that is set to automatically run. Delaying the start of this service is possible through the service manager. When installed, it will add a context menu handler to the Windows shell in order to provide quick access to the program. The setup package generally installs about 29 files and is usually about 26.46 MB (27,747,864 bytes). Relative to the overall usage of those who have this installed, most are running it on Windows 7 (SP1). While about 94% of users of StuffIt Shell Extension 64-bit patch come from the United States, it is also popular in Canada.
