Nilesoft Shell Context Menu in Everything

Post by Shaan »

Is it possible to get Everything render the system context menu as produced by Nilesoft Shell?

Rendering my own context menu is on my TODO list.

For now, Everything uses the system context menu.

Thank you for the suggestion.

Everything uses IContextMenu interface to create a context menu, same as Windows Explorer.

This should work already.

What version of Everything are you using?
-Please try the Everything 1.5 beta.

Please make sure you are using the x64 version of Everything.



Maybe Nilesoft shell is looking for the explorer process?
-Does the Nilesoft shell context menu work in Notepad from File -> Open ?
