I have a very strange shell extension folder which I just can't get rid of.

"X64"-ShellExtension folder

How can I get rid of this? I already downloaded ShellExViewer, but I cannot find any extension called "X64", nor are the other extensions which reside in that folder anywhere in the Viewer. I am also not able to find that folder in the registry, but that's probably because I don't know where to look.

How can I edit this so the contents of the folder are put in the "default" menu and not in a subfolder?
