englishmen Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 I created some registry entries to place some context entires in the My computer context menu, the below works fine including the help file when opened via the selected apps. The Uninstall Tool entries works but when i attempt to launch the help file from the app it does not launch. It launches if i open uninstall tool directly from C:Windows but not from the context menu entire, anyone know why this is, thanks. Autoruns works perfectly help file and all. Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\Autoruns][HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\Autoruns\command]@="autoruns.exe" The same with Process explorer Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\Process Explorer][HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\Process Explorer\command]@="procexp.exe" This is the trouble one Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\Uninstall Tool][HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\Uninstall Tool\command]@="uninstall.exe" Regshot just refuses to launch.

Moderators Andavari Posted January 23, 2006 Moderators Share Posted January 23, 2006 I'm not sure if this will work or not, however it's worth a try: Input the actual file path, e.g.; if regshot.exe is in C:\WINDOWS input into the .reg file this: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\Regshot][HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\Regshot\command]@="%windir%\regshot.exe" If that doesn't work perhaps this: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\Regshot][HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\Regshot\command]@="c:\windows\regshot.exe" If it works, you should be able to move those files into a proper programs files location, and use the path %programfiles% so that the .exe can be found, or just leave them in C:\WINDOWS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
englishmen Posted January 23, 2006 Author Share Posted January 23, 2006 Thanks once again Andavari, the code Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\Regshot][HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\Regshot\command]@="c:\windows\regshot.exe" works for Regshot but uninstall tool's help file still refuses to launch when uninstall tool is launched via the context menu entry.
