TechnoTone Posted June 2, 2004 Posted June 2, 2004 Anyone know how to create a sub-menu on the Windows Explorer context menu? I'm trying to do something similar to the WinZip sub-menu's. After looking in the registry I found an entry in "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\WinZip" which refers to a CLSID which then refers to the WinZip DLL WZSHLSTB.DLL which is a shell extension context menu handler. What I need to know is what does this DLL do and how does it work. I'm guessing that there is a common interface that a shell-extension context-menu handler has to implement for it to function within Windows Explorer but I don't know what it is or how to find out. I've even tried looking into the WZSHLSTB.DLL (and the accompanying WZSHLEX1.DLL) with a HEX viewer but that didn't help. I can see lots of function names but I don't know what the parameters or return values are. Does anyone have any information on this or any suggestions on how I can find out?

TechnoTone Posted June 2, 2004 Author Posted June 2, 2004 Don't know why I didn't search for "context menu handlers" before but I just did and found loads of information. Sorry! Can someone please delete or close this thread. TT (*_*) There are 10 types of people in this world; those that understand binary and those that don't.
