Customise right click menu

Others 1128 views 5 replies

When you right click on the start menu, only 3 options pop up:

1>Open
2>Explore
3>Find.

You can add your own programs to this pop up menu
(which comes up when we right click on it.)

steps>Open
Regedit and go to the following registry key:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Shell

Right click on the shell and create a new Sub Key (You can create a
new SubKey by right clicking on the Shell Key and selecting New >
Key.). Type in the name of the application you want to add to the
start menu.

I want to add Notepad to the Start Menu and hence I
name this new sub key, Notepad. Now right click on the new registry key that you just created and create yet another new key named Command. Enter the full path of the application, in this case
Notepad in the default value of Command in the right
pane. So I Modify the value of the default string value and enter the
full pathname of Notepad:

c:\wndows\notepad.exe.

Now press F5 to refresh. Now if you right click on the Start Button
you will find a new addition to the Pop Up Menu called Notepad.
