    Anyone know how to add stuff to the Right click menus of the desktop and explorer?

    Ie: select a file, and right click on it and you have the following options...

    OPEN WITH
    SCAN WITH NORTON ANTIVIRUS
    ADD TO ZIP
    ADD TO <<FILENAME>>.ZIP
    SEND TO >
    ----
    CUT
    COPY
    ----
    CREATE SHORTCUT
    DELETE
    RENAME
    ----
    PROPERTIES

    How do I go about adding to this menu?

    Use regedit and add this path of keys
    Code:
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\Thecommand\command
    and change the command key's default value to the path to the app you want to execute with that command, and add a extra "%1" if you want it to pass the filename in the command line
    Use
    writing software in C++ is like driving rivets into steel beam with a toothpick.
    writing haskell makes your life easier:
    reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13
