Am I missing something? Night Hawk, here is a shot of IE9 x64 with favorites bar and menu:

There is also a tutorial already put up about how to enable the menus permanently.

I was really excited until I read this. "Please uninstall any previous versions of Flash Player before installing this prerelease build." So now I have to install it tomorrow on my virtual pc.

Maybe for the 32 bit version of this "Square Flash" you do, not true with the 64 bit version. Runs along side the other stable 10.1 flash versions.

I didn't uninstall anything. Just added the 64 bit preview version. It is working in IE9x64 and FF 4.07bprex64. 32 bit IE9 and 32 bit FF 4.05b also still work with Flash.

I had hacked the activeX add-on for IE 32 bit and the plug-in for FF 32 bit so Full screen Flash would remain so even upon losing focus with a dual monitor setup. This "feature" remains after the installation of the 64 bit Flash.

64 bit flash working pretty darn good for me in IE 8 64 bit with at least one exception. This speed test site doesn't work: Speakeasy - Speed Test

But this one does work: Speedtest.net - The Global Broadband Speed Test

Everything else I've tried has worked well.

Sorry. I'm new here.

I figured you'd be able to find it more quickly than I could re-find it.

32bit IE9 crashes and reopens ever time you close it and hogs the ram but 64bit works fine!! but still fail when there is no flashplayer!!!
