# Shell MegaPack version 8.0 is out

By Roy Osherove January 7, 2007 In [.NET](https://osherove.com/blog/category/net), [.Net 2.0](https://osherove.com/blog/category/net-2-0), [General Software Devel...](https://osherove.com/blog/category/general-software-devel)

**Historical article** · Originally published January 7, 2007; technical details may be outdated.

The guys over at [Sky Software](http://www.ssware.com/) have updated the latest version of [Shell MegaPack to v 8.0](http://www.ssware.com/megapack.htm). It's an impressive product that I've [reviewed](http://weblogs.asp.net/rosherove/archive/2006/05/30/ShellMegaPackReview.aspx) before as part of my "advertising I stand behind" campaign, and now I'm happy to re-introduce them back into the front page of my blog as an ad I believe in.

Some of the new features include 100% managed code implementation, 64 Bit Support, many new events and more.

Good product, good features. Everyone's happy.

\[Note: This part of an ad. One which I [fully stand behind](http://weblogs.asp.net/rosherove/pages/Advertise.aspx)\]
