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

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

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

it should be

@=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

    • BetterMediaInfo 1.0.0 by Razvan Serea BetterMediaInfo is a modern, open-source graphical user interface for MediaInfo, designed to improve metadata inspection workflows for audio and video files. It extracts and presents technical parameters such as codec profiles, bitrates, resolution, frame rate, stream ordering, and container-level attributes in a structured, readable layout. The interface is built with clarity and responsiveness in mind, supporting drag-and-drop functionality. It preserves the full feature set of the MediaInfo library while making the data easier to parse for users working in media management, encoding validation, or post-production environments. In short, BetterMediaInfo takes the power of MediaInfo and makes it much easier to use. Whether you're checking video quality, verifying audio settings, or just curious about a file's details, it gives you clear, organized info without the clutter. Requires Microsoft Edge WebView2, which is included in most Windows versions. BetterMediaInfo 1.0.0 changelog: Added an Image stream table to the card view and detail view, including type, color space, resolution, and size fields. Added View settings to toggle Image stream tables in card view and detail view. Added BatchMkvMerge to the welcome page with localized descriptions and a GitHub link. Added a portable 7z archive to the Windows release artifacts. Improved first-run language selection by detecting the system language and saving it to configuration. Updated Italian translations.

    • We wrote about it here https://www.neowin.net/news/browser-vendors-pen-open-letter-to-microsoft-saying-enough-is-enough/ the open letter itself is here https://browserchoicealliance.org/open-letter/
    • Someone forgot to mention EDR in the title ? I think I will not click anymore on the articles written by this author. All are click bait.
    • Browser vendors including Chrome, Firefox, Brave, and Vivaldi have jointly written an open letter to Microsoft saying enough is enough regarding Edge being pushed on Windows users without consent. Microsoft makes it difficult to change the default browser, promotes Edge throughout Windows 11, and has made the uninstall process unnecessarily complicated compared to other apps. Does anyone have more details on what exactly the open letter demands and whether any regulatory action is being considered? Also curious whether this could lead to antitrust investigations similar to what happened with Internet Explorer back in the day. Would love to hear from anyone following this closely.
