c# - Shell Context Menus -


i running windows 7 x64 machine.

i have written following code add context menu on right click:

    registrykey rkey = registry.classesroot.opensubkey("directory\\background\\shell", true);     string[] names = rkey.getsubkeynames();     foreach (string s in names)     {         system.windows.forms.messagebox.show(s);      }     registrykey newkey = rkey.createsubkey("your application");     registrykey newsubkey = newkey.createsubkey("command");     newsubkey.setvalue("", "c:\\windows\\system32\\notepad.exe");     newsubkey.close();     newkey.close();     rkey.close();                   

if repeat procedure directly on registry, works, not via this.

i able access registry, have added snippet tells lists subkeys require, not add one.

i have tested code , & good. looks dont have access rights open registry code. follow these simple steps:

  1. close visual studio. open again run administrator mode. 1 can right clicking on visual studio link , choose run administrator option.
  2. open code , run there.

if want directly run program exe right click on exe & choose run administrator option.

if don't want run administrator, follow these steps:

  1. add new file project called app.manifest; adding new file project.
  2. add following data file, rest magic.

just replace application name myapplication.app. important part section. rest auto generated.
