  2. 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 When trying to delete multiple files.. Delete entry missing from the desktop context menu.... :(

    Vista - Weird error trying to delete Start Menu item

    It's probably just a registry entry - run registry cleaner. Or, try doing this; Open File Explorer, browse to \Windows\Start Menu and you'll see the icons there. Delete from this folder and that should remove it.

    If the deleted files is stil in Recycle bin, restore it then go back to start menu and delete the file the normal way.

    If you can't find the recycle bin...Right-click on your desktop and choose Personalize,
    click the Change Desktop Icons link in upper left hand corner. In the Desktop Icons Settings window, check the Recycle Bin box and click OK.

    Hope that helps.*Toast :toast:

    Vista - Weird error trying to delete Start Menu item

    That's what I'm trying to do and where I get the error *Smile When trying to delete multiple files.. Delete entry missing from the desktop context menu.... :)

    I have run CCleaner, to no avail (still cannot delete folder/file).

    To show what I mean more clearly (not very good at explaining!), see this screenshot. As you can see, the folder I'm trying to delete is selectable, but cannot be deleted or have attributes such as Hidden applied to it.
