Unable to add .prt extension file type to New context menu

Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

We understand your concern and we truly appreciate the time and effort that you have taken to work on this issue. However, we would need some information regarding the issue.

1. Could you please let us know how exactly you are trying to add
   .PRT files to context menu?
   
2. May I know the program you are using to work with
   .PRT files?
   
3. Could you please let us know if you are able to see
   .prt sub key under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT key in registry (Press
   Windows + R key and type regedit and press
   Enter)?

Custom context menu entries

So, just throwing this out there, in case somone knows.

I have added a custom context menu entry for the program rightload, since by default the menu is broken in vistax64.

It works pefect with single files, but when I select mutiple files and try to open, I get mutiple instances of the program (which makes sense), here is my entry:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Rightload\Rightload.exe --server=1 --autostart %1

So the %1 passes the filename to the program, and when I select multiple files it is just opening multiple instances of rightload each with a different file.

What I'd like to do is be able to pass a list of the files selected to the program. Since I know it is capable of uploading multiple files from the context menu, all in one instance.

So, is there something I can pass besides %1 that will do this? I have looked around and can't seem to find an answer anywhere... *Frown
