Support for older Nautilus versions has been removed in win32-details 0.5.0, because of moving to Nautilus API 4.0, which deprecates direct usage of GTK widgets in favor of a new model-based interface (which is a shitty decision IMO). In this situation I had three options:
Honestly, I'm not that interested in maintaining a separate version of extension, as majority of people are using the latest version of Nautilus now. Moving a extension to a standalone program would make everything more complicated, and I don't think that many people would want to install an app which just shows them details of EXE files (but maybe, in the future...).
