Context Menu Bridge
Posted: Wed Aug 17, 2022 4:52 am
We'd like to try this new feature to get a single entry onto the Windows 11 context menu which for now sits in the old menu.
The help file states:
"First, ensure that your project already installs your IContextMenu based context menu implementations normally."
I'm not aware of a feature for doing this. We created this entry manually (in InstallAware) by creating a few registry entries that look like the following:
We didn't use CLSIDs and I'm not sure which would be the correct way to do this.
Any help is appreciated.

Code: Select all
Write Registry Key HKCR\<filetype>\, Our Project
Write Registry Key HKCR\<filetype>\Shell\Show\, $MENUTEXT$
Write Registry Key HKCR\<filetype>\Shell\Show\Command\, "$TARGETDIR$\Player.exe" "%1"
We didn't use CLSIDs and I'm not sure which would be the correct way to do this.
Any help is appreciated.
