I've been searching this for a while here on the forums, and i've found CMenu, but apparentely it doesn't work for Win7 x64.

I'm trying to add the following in windows context menu:

Menu (on file .exe, .com OR folder)

->Submenu Command (on file .exe, .com & folder)

->Submenu Command2 (on file .exe, .com)

I have tried a bunch of applications to perform this apparentely simple task, but so far... not possible.

I need to do this in Autoit via regwrite.

Can this be done?

You can always try a good function which solves 99% of the problems.

It's called SEARCH BUTTON.

I'm a compulsive poster. When I post something, come to read it at least 5 minutes later after the posting, because I will edit it. I edited even this signature a few minutes later after I wrote it.

I can already guess how deep your search was. I guess AZJIO search lasted 10 seconds more than yours and produced a great result.

Moreover, I've used search now and I found more than something related to your question.

Whatever, not worth having the search results of a "common compulsive poster".

Have a nice day.

Have a nice day.

Again..... it is you that hasn't read enough... Azijo made the tool, so why would he spend much time searching for it?

Now tell me, can you see in he's post the words "Context Menu"? Tell me if you can, if not, please just stop bothering me.

Microsoft has this very badly documented, i've searched everywhere, and i don't understand how do i owe you any explanations....

Do you mean like this, right?

Exactly like that.

Look in my signature at _ShellAll.

I tried it but i didn't see the option to create submenus. I'll look ito it again, thank you ;)

If I were using Win7, I would have made the utility allows you to create menus. I like it and the algorithm is simple.

...

But to me the reg-file suffices

Again... Thank you! I also preffer to use the registry instead of tools. :)

Going to try it now.

Edit: Tried it! It is almost perfect! :D Finally! Thank you so much for this AZIJO!

Know how i can get the option to add the folder option also?

In a very near future i'll try to create a tool my this purpose myself.

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTFolder

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTDrive

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT - Combines both sections

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREClasses - All Users

HKEY_CURRENT_USERSOFTWAREClasses - Current user

Not wanting o be annoying, but do you have any idea how i can create a menu that appears only when a folder or a .exe or .com is selected?

This is what u need, just use the regedit entries in autoit.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\Test]
"MUIVerb"="Test"
"SubCommands"="ex1;ex2;ex3"
"icon"="*.ico"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\ex1]
@="ex1"
"Icon"="ex1.ico"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\ex1\command]
@="Someexe.exe"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\ex2]
@="ex2"
"Icon"="ex2.ico"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\ex2\command]
@="Someexe.exe"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\ex3]
@="ex3"
"Icon"="ex3.cpl"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\ex3\command]
@="Someexe.exe"

btw, to make it to allways show, regardless of where you right click, be it a folder or a file, change "[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTDirectoryBackgroundshellTest]" to "[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT*shellTest]"

Sorry i took so long to reply. xmas time.....

Thanks for your help Careca.

So... my new problem is the following.

This works:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\Test]
"MUIVerb"="Test"
"SubCommands"="ex1;ex2;ex3"
"icon"="*.ico"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\exefile\shell\Test]
"MUIVerb"="Test"
"SubCommands"="ex1;ex2;ex3"
"icon"="exemenu.ico"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\comfile\shell\Test]
"MUIVerb"="Test"
"SubCommands"="ex1;ex2;ex3"
"icon"="commenu.ico"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\ex1]
@="ex1"
"Icon"="ex1.ico"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\ex1\command]
@="Someexe.exe"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\ex2]
@="ex2"
"Icon"="ex2.ico"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\ex2\command]
@="Someexe.exe"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\ex3]
@="ex3"
"Icon"="ex3.ico"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\ex3\command]

But this doesn't:

RegWrite("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\Test", "MUIVerb", "REG_SZ", "Test")

RegWrite("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\ex3", "", "REG_SZ", "ex3")
RegWrite("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\ex3", "Icon", "REG_SZ", "ex3.ico")

RegWrite("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\ex3\command", "", "REG_SZ", "Someexe.exe")

Try putting #RequireAdmin at the top of the script. HKLM is a protected section of the registry and you need the proper permissions for writing in it.

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

I hereby grant any person the right to use any code I post, that I am the original author of, on the autoitscript.com forums, unless I've specifically stated otherwise in the code or the thread post. If you do use my code all I ask, as a courtesy, is to make note of where you got it from.
