Adding Application To Right Click Explorer Menu?
May 19, 2010
I've added my applications extension to the right click menu via the registry (HKCR*shellCheck Versioncommand"c:program filesapplication.exe")
How do I make this extension aware? eg, the option only appears when right clicking files with my extension?

i want to put a menu item for my application to the right click menu of windows explorer.I do not want to do it programmatically but i want to do it with the .NET installer.Until now i have found that i have to insert into the registry the following keys:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/*/shell/MyApplication/command
and i have to put there a new value of
"[TARGETDIR]MyApplication.exe" "-file=%1"
The problem is that i want to be able to select multiple files and then call my application with parameter all of these files.Now when i right click with many selected files my application is run for each file sepparately.I want to run my application only once and with an input parameter of all the files that are selected.Also until now i cannot add a value to the (Default) key. It only adds a new value to the registry...Also i want to be able to do the same thing with folders...

I've written a little application that uploads selected files to my ftp server. What I want to do now, is add that application to the windows right click context. For example, I've installed anti virus, if i right click on my desktop there is a there is a new item within the right click list which lets my right click on files and scans. What I want to know is, how to I add my application into the right click menu, how to get my application to respond when I click on the entry in the right click menu and any other thing anyone thinks will be useful. I have never done this before, and I have never been taught in class.

I did some research and i found that i will need to edit the registry.So if i make a folder called "Get Path" in the ContextMenuHandlers folder.When i click on the file in windows explorer or desktop etc i will have the option called "Get Path".Now for the value key what do i put inside?What i want is when the user right - clicks on the file my program starts up and displays the path of that file on a msgbox or listbox. I was thinking of letting the Windows Installer (.msi) doing this for me.

I want to be able to click a button on my application and the start menu appears where I've clicked. This (if possible) will replace my shell.exe. I know that with EmergeDesktop, you can show the start menu by right-clicking the desktop. How do you do that?

VB express 2008 .net 3.5 or .net 4.0 VB express 2010?I have written application to convert RTF to HTML. The main Purpose of the application is to copy VS code to the clipboard and covert it then put it back into the clipboard as a HTML Document so that it can be pasted into a HTML document such as Windows Live Mail. I found that code copied and pasted is spaced out in in the wrong positions.
The applications works perfect with no bugs so far. I then asked Myself how to go about doing the copy with the least amount of operator interaction. So I added an Icon to the Icon Tray with a right click menu to use to convert once the Rich Text Format was copied to the clipboard. This works fine except you have Five steps, Select the text, Copy to clipboard, Right Click the icon, Select the Converter and Paste. The normal is three steps.
To this the best solution is to add a context menu item to the active form such as the RTF editor or window. So that when you select the Rich Text to copy and right click on the form to bring up that menu then to Just Select the menu Item such as "Copy RT and Convert" I searched and found about 544000 Items and tried to restrict down to no avail. I read until I finally gave up. I did not find any code examples of this. Almost every thing I found related to the web or some other explicit document like Excel and not to the Various windows that could be active with RT in it.
how do you add a context menu item to the context menu of an active rich text format window such as WordPad or VB?I have test in my application that tests to see if it is a RTF in the clipboard so if it is not the converter does nothing.

I'm trying to connect a VB application (2010) to an MS Access DB by adding a data source from the data menu but I receive this error message "The connection you selected uses a local data file that is not in the current project.Would you like to copy the file to your project and modify the connection ?
If you copy the data file to your project, it will be copied to the project's output directory each time you run the application" and the options are (yes , No , Help)
If I choose Yes I will not be able to make the application 'device independent ' since it will not be copied under the bin , and if I choose No , changes won't be applied to the DB

When I click programmatically on a Download link in a webpage, IE 9 does not allow me to automatically download, I have to click on Open, Save or Cancel.
How can I make the selection (Open, Save or Cancel) programmatically?
At the moment I am using the sendkeys command, but, as we know, it is not reliable.
I also do not want to program a mouse click because it is cumbersome and because even in full screen one has to factor in the zoom factor.
I am using SHDocVw.InternetExplorer
The Webbrowser will also do.

I want to add an option to the explorer context menu that appears whenever a user right clicks on a folder or drive. So I add the following reg key:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTFoldershellMyProgramcommand
"(Default)" value within is set to:
C:MyProgram.exe "%1"
and all works fine for folders, the %1 gets expanded to the relevant folder path that the user clicked on. However, when right clicking on a drive (e.g C drive in My Computer) the fact that the path then has a trailing backslash seems to seems to mess things up as the backslash acts as an escape character and makes the last quote mark get passed in as part of the command line (and the backslash is removed completely).For example if the following command is called from a context menu generated by the user right clicking on their C drive: "MyProgram.exe" "%1" You would expect the final command line to be this:MyProgram.exe C:But what actually happens is this: MyProgram.exe C:" I can add a backslash in manually (e.g "%1") but then it works fine for drives and not for folders.
