Windows Context Menu

Since installing CS3 the option to select Fireworks from the
windows context menu has disappeared. Anyone suggest how to fix
this one? It would have been good if there wa sa function in CS3 to
claim the file extensions as Fireworks files.

Bad news. You can't do that in pure Java. You will have to write a ContextMenuHandler dll, which is, by the way, a real pain in the a**, and integrate it with the windows explorer. Which means you will need to use Visual c++ / .net. Take a look at www.codeproject.com and search for the 'Total idiots guide to writing shell extensions' by Michael Dunn, it contains a great article on how to do it. The communication with java will be pretty annoing, too, you will most likely have to run your Java tool as a service and communicate via ports.
As i said, it's a pain...

  • "Edit in Photoshop Elements" missing from windows context menu.

    How do I get the "Edit in Photoshop Elements" back in my context menu? I think what happened was that after installing PSE 13 I uninstalled PSE 12 and that may have removed the context menu item. Just guessing. Is there a way to add it back without re-installing PSE 13?

    Right click on a photo file of the type that you will want to open in PSE. In the context menu, mouse over Open With to open the menu. Select "Choose default program" and in the window that opens select PSE 13 if it appears in either Recommended or Other. If it isn't shown, choose Browse and navigate to the PSE 13 .exe file in Programs/Adobe/Photoshop Elements. If you want files of this type to always open in PSE when double-clicked, check the box "Always use the selected program". If you want PSE 13 to only appear in the Open With menu, be sure the box is not checked. Click OK.

  • Windows Explorer folder context menu crash

    Hello, On a PC running Windows 7x64 Ultimate,  Windows Explorer closes with a
    "Windows Explorer has stopped working" message, and needs to be restarted.
    It quits when I right click on a folder, while right clicking on a file doesn't cause it
    to quit. So far I've tried:
    Uninstalling and reinstalling graphics drivers, SVC scan, malware scans, virus scan,
    hijack this, safe mode, clean boot, shexview,  shmnview, reliability monitor, and event
    viewer. I could use some help with what shell extensions to modify, if that is
    even the problem.  Thanks

  • Extract All context menu

     Extract All option is missing in my right click Context Menu.
    I tried to use the restore default file type association and selected  Zip to restore. That did not work.
    I also used the tutorial from the same forum to install Extract All. That did not work either.
    For now I am using 7 zip.
    I would like to know if there is anything else I can do to restore the "native" Extract All option, such as registry editing.

    Hi david hk129,
    I have no idea about restoring the "native" status of Context Menu. It's hard or impossible, if you have not saved registry or image of Windows. But...
    These URLs will be helpful

  • Open iviews in new window from detailed navigation context menu function

    hello,
    when we click in the detail navigation menu and in the context menu (because many of ours users are used to right click to open a link in a new window on the internet) on the functionnality "open in new window", the start page is always display instead of the corresponding iview ...
    could you tell me if there is a configuration into the portal to :
    1- suppress the function "open in new window" from the context menu in the detailed navigation !
    2- make the iview displayed into the new window really the iview desired !
    best regards,
    Olivier.

    Hi Olivier,
    The frist part is very precise. Not possible. Period. The reason is that the links are calling JS and not directly calling a http target.
    About the second part: Within the Light Framework, you create a Light Detailed Navigation. And in this case, the links are direct http links. So with that, you have what you want.
    For the Light Framework see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce10/helpdata/en/43/0174a642406db7e10000000a422035/frameset.htm and around.
    Hope it helps

    I have fusion 7.1.1 on an iMac 27 inch retina. 32GB ram of which 6GB assigned to Fusion and 2 cores. Windows 7 Home Premium installed. Mostly working fine but a few funnies. First and foremost: Whenever I drag and drop between instances of windows explorer, I get the little pop-up context menu offering me Copy Here / Move Here etc.  etc. I have never known Windows to ask me what I want to do when I drag stuff - why is this happening ? I have scoured the net for info on this and found nothing. Please note that this is NOT associated with the Start Menu (For which I found a zillion solutions to whatever that problem is). Also, It is NOT to do with stopping drag & drop and Context menus: yes, I know how to do that but that is NOT what I'm asking to get rid of. This may not be related but I have also had to set my Internet Properties / Explorer settings / Launching-applications-and-unsafe-files to "Enable" to prevent every shortcut I create causing a "Do you want to run this ... ?" message every time I click on them. Doing this has caused WIndows 7 to turn into a finger-wagging safety-nanny glaring at me over its demi-lune spectacles.

    Ok ... fixed

    In your sequence, on the left most column you should see a V1 (left of the Lock Track button). Click that to make sure its highlighted, it allows you to drop video to the sequence.

  • Context menu How to add extra lines in Windows 7

    Windows 7. Just updated from XP.  Only modest technical skills, so I would appreciate simple detailed instructions if anyone is able to help me.

    Hi,
    This is the Microsoft TechNet Forum and mainly focused on Windows Server System, if you have any questions about Windows Client System-Windows 7, I recommend you to post the question in corresponding  forum for official support.
    Microsoft Forums about Windows 7:
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-us/home?category=w7itpro&filter=alltypes&sort=lastpostdesc
    or
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7?tab=Threads
    Besides, types of files/programs/operations, context menu may show different lines. It is better to provide more information about the function you want to implement.

  • Update for RDP 8.1 Windows 7 SP1 changed explorer right click context menu

    I have a 4 pcs and 3 nas drive on my network.  previous to the update I could view my pcs and nas drives in explorers right pane left click one and access the folders on it.  since the update I can no longer do this because "remotedesktopconnection"
    has been added as the default (previously it was "open") to the right click context menu.  can someone help me change this back so when I right click a network computer icon in explorer I only see:
    open                                                                   
    AND NOT                              remotedesktop
    open in a new window                                                                                       open
    create shortcut                                                                                                 open
    in a new window
                                                                                                                           create
    shortcut
    the exact update that makes the change is: kb2592687

    Hi
    Theoretically it could be done by modify registry. For example you could
    modify right click menu on .exe file by changing values under
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\exefile\shellex\
    However there are some problems that I cannot define that what kind of “file”
    the network computer is.
    And I found no article specific to this.
    If you really need to restore your context menu and also need this update, I
    suggest you uninstall this update first. Then back up your registry, install it
    again. This time using process monitor you could record all registry modifications during
    this update installation. It might take lots of work.
    I tried to do that for you, unfortunately this update has been deployed in our environment which cannot be uninstalled from update history.

  • How do I change the order of context menu items in Private Windows?

    In the context menu that appears when I right-click on a link, I prefer to have "Open Link in New Window" at the top of the menu instead of "Open Link in New Tab". I have added code to userChrome.css to make that switch:
    #context-openlink {
    -moz-box-ordinal-group: 1 !important;
    #contentAreaContextMenu > * {
    -moz-box-ordinal-group: 2;
    Firefox version 20 added Private Browsing Windows. The above code still works for the non-Private windows, but doesn't affect the Private Windows, so in those I still have "Open Link in New Tab" at the top of the context menu, and "Open Link in New Private Window" as the second item. Is there a way to change the order of these menu items in Private Windows?

    Clarification: In the code snippets above, the "1."s are supposed to be pound-signs; they got auto-reformatted incorrectly.

  • In v4 why did you flip the context menu for open in new tab/window. Sucks when you are used to the other way

    I downgraded to 3.x because when I browse I have many new open windows (I have been using FF for so long I automatically select the second option). Seems stupid to change the order of the context menu when it has been the other way forever.
    Please change it back or at least have the order as an option.

    So the answer from TonyE was "That was an intentional change to promote the use of tabbed browsing." (See http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/791244)
    And there is an option to use a menu editor to put them back detailed in that thread as well. The problem, of course, is that you need to perform a complex customization to every computer on which you use Firefox in order to fix a problem that should never have been created, never made it through beta, and that the developers won't fix because they believe that they are right.
    Frankly, eventually you get used to it. But in the mean time, they have annoyed, and in many cases pissed-off a large segment of their users for no reason at all.

  • Acrobat X Pro - Windows 7 - Missing context menu

    Hi, so I just installed Adobe Acrobat X Pro on a Windows 7 computer and noticed how the context menu "right click" for "Combine PDF files" are missing. Open with Adobe Acrobat X however is there, but when selecting two or more PDF files, this option isn't there anymore. It was before installing Acrobat X from Acrobat 9.3.
    I tried regsvr32 for ContextMenu.dll as well as the ContextMenu64.dll, since this is a 64bit Windows 7 computer. I also tried removing the entry from registry. When I ran the regsvr32 again, the registry entry came back. So the registering of the dll seems to be working.
    The only thing I haven't tried yet is to restart the computer. Would that be necessary? Or is this option removed from Acrobat X?

    do the following to see if you get them back
    register the Contextmenu64.dll (if on a 64bit system)
    located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat Elements
    Open a command prompt as an administrator
    type:
    cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat Elements
    hit return
    type:
    regsvr32 Contextmenu64.dll
    hit return
    check if these context menu's have returned for supported files.
    I had the same issue and this worked for me.

    Hello,
    ''jstavene wrote:''
    can find nothing under the tools menu for private browsing?
    Then it's not the same issue.
    If Firefox is set to '''Never remember history''', then you're in “permanent private browsing” mode, in which case the menu item ''Stop Private Browsing'' will be grayed out. Perhaps that's the case, and you don't find the menu item easy to see?
    * [[Settings for privacy, browsing history and do-not-track]]
    If that's not the case, then menu items can be hidden using the userChrome.css file. Check if it exists, and if it's there, rename it, then restart Firefox.
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/UserChrome.css
    In Firefox Nightly (what will become Firefox 20), per-window private browsing has been added, so the menu item under the Tools menu is gone. It's been replaced by New Private Window under the File menu. I don't suppose it's very likely that you're using such a cutting-edge test version of Firefox though.
    If that doesn't solve the problem, since it's a different issue, it would be best if you would ask a new question.
