Shun Di Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 Browse To HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT -> * -> shellThen create a new Key, and name it what you want the entry in the context menu to be called. Then create a new Key called command, and double click the default entry. Set the value to the path of your program with a "%1" after it."C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\(Z)\ResHacker\ResHacker.exe" "%1"Now when you right click any file you should be able to open it in the program of your choice.

paul3vanz Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 does anyone know if it's possible to add an icon to the context menu options? i wanted to add "Open With Notepad" with the notepad icon, and "Open With..." with a standard exe icon, same for the "Open Command Window Here" tweak.
