Is it possible to use third-party .dll for context menus?

Post by stanmarsh »

Hello everyone,

im just wondering if this is possible for a custom context menu, i noticed that most third-party apps that i use which only adds context menus are in the form of .dll files. i think windows load these .dlls so that it shows in the context menus.

thanks

Not sure what you mean, but I would say "no". :) What are you missing in XY?

what i meant was if its possible to use third-party shells extension exclusively within xyplorer context menu, so you have your favorite third-party context menu wherever you go, im not missing any features in xyplorer and if there is its already in the roadmap :D.

No, not possible since these things a registered system wide. Possible would be to do the other thing: hide them from XYplorer.
