Guys
After getting a few request I decided to write this tut.
I hv seen earlier lots of members posting their problems related to drive, folder context menus. Like a suspicious entry was added in their drive context menu, etc.
So in this tutorial, I'll tell u how to add ur own customized entries in context menus and how to remove unwanted entries from context menu:
A. Open regedit and goto:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\* (for adding an option in All files context menu)
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory (for adding an option in folders context menu only)
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive (for adding an option in Drives context menu only)
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Unknown (for adding an option in unknown files context menu)
B. Now under the above mentioned keys, u'll find "Shell" and "Shellex" keys. Both keys contain various entries, which are displayed when you right-click on a file, folder or drive. We'll use "Shell" key in this tutorial:
