Explorer right click->New menu

[jamesish]

Hi folks,

I would like to add a file association to the "new" menu in Explorer's right click context menu. This is the menu you can make a new text file from, shown in the attachment.

I have had no luck working out how to do this with InstallAware. Is it possible to do this from InstallAware?

Thanks

James

Dear James,

This isn't directly doable with InstallAware, however you can play with the registry to achieve this functionality - check this out:
