Probably, it's a matter of licensing if we are discussing about the 64-bit version of ml.exe

well you can get newest masm ml.exe 7.x and ml64.exe for intel or amd64 separate from windows drivers framework, that is for free on microsoft. but on 64bit systems there is no stack calling convention only parameters are passed with new 16 64bit registers, r0-r15 as i remember so whole masm package, includes,libs has to be reedited to use those regs, and not pass params into stack. but thats work of hutch and other people who contribute it. hutch will not give ml64 until he gets rights to do it from microsoft. but he can rls package with includes and write get ml64 for yourself. then i think he will not break law or copy rights

Read some of the other ML64 threads.

Right now, it's been gutted of the most useful features/syntax.
