    Why does this not work


    I have a .reg and bat file that I thought used to work but doesn't work right any more. It only works if I shift+right click on a file, but not on a directory.


    AddisItaLink.reg:
    I've merged the reg file into the registry:

    C:\Users\ztruk>rq HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\isLink
    ECHO is on.

    C:\Users\ztruk>reg query "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\isLink"

    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\isLink
    (Default) REG_SZ Is This a Link
    Extended REG_SZ

    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\isLink\command

    C:\Users\ztruk>rq HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\isLink\command
    ECHO is on.

    C:\Users\ztruk>reg query "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\isLink\command"

    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\isLink\command
    (Default) REG_SZ "C:\rexxprogs\isItaLink.bat" "%1"
    C:\rexxprogs\isItaLink.bat

  3. Windows 10 infinite restart black screen


    The tutorials provided are just a list of troubleshooting steps. Use only the steps which apply to you.

    Since none of the troubleshooting steps here worked, I'd suggest you do a Clean install.
