CryoEnix Posted January 23, 2005 Posted January 23, 2005 How would I go about adding an item to the context menu (on right clicking a file in explorer) that would add a custom command? Say for example, I wanted the option to be "Open in binaryreader" and I wanted it to launch the file "c:\binaryreader.exe" with the command line parameter being the path of the file that's been right clicked, and that it would appear when right clicking any file, regardless of extension. I know this is possible, as winzip and other programs seem to 'intrude' into these context menus. Any Ideas? Quote Chaos is merely logic beyond human comprehension
