About the error: What's the location of your OSA.exe?

============================================

Some people requested an Explorer Icon; anybody got some ideas about what I should add to the Context Menu's and what the default opening location should be?

Here's the fixed "My Computer" & "My Documents" (fixed all commands). :Edit:/b> I've replaced Explorer.exe in the commands with "RunDLL32.exe Shell32,ShellExec_RunDLL" (default Run Command).

Here are the reg files for Dock users.

? ? post-20663-1127733165.jpg

These reg files will add the Icons to "Entire Network" instead of the Desktop.

If you have the Icons on the Desktop, first merge the "Remove" regs and then merge the "Add" regs.

See _dock.txt for more info.

Here's the fixed "My Computer" & "My Documents" (fixed all commands).  :)

Edit: I've replaced Explorer.exe in the commands with "RunDLL32.exe Shell32,ShellExec_RunDLL" (default Run Command).

586580634[/snapback]

wow wow wow i can fix it :D

very thank you again for your great thing

for people who have the same problem as me change the command of your context in registry editor by use

RunDLL32.exe Shell32,ShellExec_RunDLL "whatever you want"

instead

Explorer.exe /n, X:\\whatever

for example use

RunDLL32.exe Shell32,ShellExec_RunDLL "D:\\My Download"

not

Explorer.exe /n, D:\\My Download

and you won't have the problem 'bout the icon.

:laugh:

Great job Herby with the icons.Anyway can someone tell me whats wrong with my reg file edit?

look at this line

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{00000000-5240-0000-0000-000000000002}\Shell\01\Command]

@=RunDLL32.exe Shell32,ShellExec_RunDLL "c:\\"

it should be

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{00000000-5000-0000-0000-000000000002}\Shell\01\Command]

@=RunDLL32.exe Shell32,ShellExec_RunDLL "c:\\"

try to edit in the regeditor it will be more easy :)

That's right, but the command is also wrong, it has to be:

I've got some great news! :D

Wiredbits has created a neat little program called SCCU (Shorcut Clean Up).

? ? post-47883-1133737044_thumb.jpg

With this program you can create Textless Desktop Icons and Shortcuts with Enhanced Context Menu's.

You can download it here (@ MegaUpload.com),.if someone can host it please PM me or post it here!b>

It's betab> version but I've tested it and it's working great,.. and best of all: it's free!:D:D

You can drag and drop files, shortcuts, drives or folders to the Drag and Drop Icon. Menu Name, Internal Name and Command are generated from the Drop action (98% of the time).

If you notice bugs or have suggestions you can post them here.

He's a little busy a.t.m. (see quote) but he's open for suggestions.

I have to get ready for that hurricane due this weekend so will be busy with that and work, etc. If a strom gets to close i normally pack computer up and store it which is ok since electric is out for at least a week afterwards.? Hope the thing bypasses us.
Edited by Herby

    • Here is how to watch Apple's WWDC 2026 conference where iOS 27 is expected by Taras Buria It is Monday, June 8, 2026, which means today is the day Apple kicks off its annual Worldwide Developer Conference, WWDC 2026. As usual, today's keynote will be full of consumer and developer-focused announcements, including new versions of Apple's operating systems, developer tools, and more. Apple streams its developer conferences, allowing everyone to tune in and watch the announcements live. Today is no exception, so here is how you can watch it. Apple WWDC 2026 will be available to watch on Apple's official website here. Also, you can stream it on YouTube and the Apple TV app on your Apple device. The stream kicks off at 10 AM PDT / 1 PM EDT / 6 PM GMT+1. Apple's annual developer conference usually focuses on new software experiences, so do not expect major hardware announcements. What is expected is the "27" series of Apple's operating systems, including iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, tvOS, visionOS, and macOS. Apple is unlikely to introduce major UI changes, but you can expect subtle tweaks to the Liquid Glass design language, particularly on Mac. One of the biggest changes Apple plans to announce today is a reworked, AI-powered Siri. The assistant will be available as a standalone app with a chatbot-like experience and Google's AI models under the hood. If you want to learn more about what is expected today at WWDC 2026, check out our dedicated article here. However, if you prefer a spoiler-free stream, tune in at 10 AM PDT / 1 PM EDT on Apple's official website, its YouTube channel, or the Apple TV app.
    • For we consumer readers, it would be helpful if you clearly stated in the headline if the article is about consumer or enterprise. Then readers will know if the article applies to them or not. 2 cents.
    • At the moment I have my main PC and a test PC on my work desk. The test PC is also not inverted so I am not looking at the glass panel side, which is irritating.
    • I'm glad you posted this clarification of the cause of so-called Windows 11 update problems that too often appear in the article headlines.. In the future, it would be better to readers if you took your time, did the analysis before posting an article about Windows problems, which end up being a waste of time. Just saying.
    • Nah. They'll milk the current generation in terms of design - controllers, consoles, but no meaningful hardware improvements. This is one reason why people aren't buying Xbox hardware - it's stagnant.
