How to add a shortcut to my program in the right-click menu of a file

epsilong123

For example, UE, after installing UE, right-click on each file, you will see an item in the menu "Open with UE"
I would like to ask what to do under BCB? Is it to modify the registry

For example, add an execution call on a file with the avi extension
----------------------------------------------
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.avi]
@ = "mkvfile"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\mkvfile\shell\opens with my program]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\mkvfile\shell\Open\command with my program]
@ = "\" E:\\Multimedia\\MPlayerCommandline.bat\"\"% 1\""

For example, add an execute call on a file with the extension mkv

Change it
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.mkv]
@ = "mkvfile"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\mkvfile\shell\opens with my program]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\mkvfile\shell\Open\command with my program]
@ = "\" E:\\RunMPlayerCommandline.bat\"\"% 1\""

Not to associate a certain file, but to each file, no matter what file, as long as you right-click the menu, there is this item in the menu item

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Classes\\*\\shell]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Classes\\*\\shell\\Wutengfei.com] @ =\"open this file\" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Classes\\*\\shell\\Wutengfei.com\\command] @ =\"program .exe\\\"% 1\\\"\"

Is that true?
Last time I do n’t know who listened to what, what is SHELL extended programming

Haha~~~ Don't be so overbearing, you can associate any file, can any file be opened with such a program?

Don't need to associate, just say to add an option on the right-click menu, just like the TXT file is associated with the Notepad program, but I can also choose to open with UE when right-clicking the menu, that's what it means

光明之行者

Oh, then I understand, it seems that UE is related to the registry. The "SHELL extended programming" you said before seems to have been heard. It is your program that monitors the right-click action in the system when it is running. Add such a key?
