Solve : How to add expanable menu items to desktop context menu...?

Answer»

Hi all, I've been editing my desktop right click context menu items for years via HKCR\Directory\Background|Shell, but have never been able to figure out if you can ADD an EXPANDABLE menu for items. Is there a WAY to do it? Sort of like the New>Text File etc... I would like to be able to add programs to open from the menu without having a long list. I don't care for too many shortcuts on the desktop and I know how to run everything from Run or cmd, but I want to make a menu to make it easy for my wife to just right click and run something. For example I have about 10 GAMES I would like to have in a menu, Have one entry "Games" then expands to show all the available games and then have a "Programs" expandable menu as well with maybe more expandable items under it to organize the different types of programs.

I know it doesn't really matter much, but I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.This would require a custom Shell Extension.

I found a tool called simply "Context Menu" that appears to provide functionality that might work for you.Context Menu Editor still works real well...you may have to hunt for the Free VERSION however...OK thanks guys I figured there was probably a program, but I was hoping I could do it myself without 3rd party programs lol I'm used to doing things manually. I'll check out what you guys mentioned... Appreciate your help!!!
