[angel0104]

nope. like instead of opening up run or cmd then typing iexpress...

you'll just right click on a folder pr a drive and firing up iexpress through the context menu.

registry?

To make changes to the right click menu, you need to look at the keys in

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT

It's going to look confusing and I can't give you any details, but to edit what shows when you right click a folder I think you have to add a new key to the "*" collection of keys. I know this affects the right click of all files but I can't recall if this affects folders too.

You'll probably notice MS keeps track of the right click on a per file extension basis, so if you want to apply this to specific files just dupe your effort.
