Add new item to context menu?

[eMule]

I am using Vista x64. Agnitum Outpost Suite adds an entry "Scan for Malware" to Windows Explorer context menu. This is not displayed in XYPlorer. Maybe because Agnitum Outpost is a 64-bit program and XYPlorer is 32-bit? How do I add this to XYPlorer right click menu?

Edit: If this info is already available somewhere, could someone please point me to it?

Hello and welcome to XYplorer Forums!

A potential solutions is here: http://www.xyplorer.com/faq-topic.php?id=4 However, I don't see installing 2 Internet Security products side-by-side as a feasible option. Perhaps it's worth asking the developer of that product to provide you with a patch that registers a 32-bit extension in the context menu. Another possible solution could be creating either a UDC (http://www.xyplorer.com/tour/index.php?page=udc) or a CTB (http://www.xyplorer.com/release_8.40.htm#ctb) that would pass a current item to the executable of that software that would do the scanning.

If further help is needed, please let me know.

Thank you zer0. Sorry I took a long time to reply. I am using the Home version of XYPlorer, so I cannot create a UDC or CTB. I messaged Agnitum support and they replied saying they will "take the suggestion into consideration." So maybe they will add the 32-bit shell extension to the next version of Outpost.

Update:
I found out using ShellexView that Agnitum Outpost Suite uses a .dll file (op_shell.dll) to add the context menu entry to scan for malware. I installed the 32-bit version of the suite on a virtual machine, copied its dll file to my Vista x64 machine to the syswow64 folder, and registered it. Now, I see the right click option in both XYPlorer and the 32-bit explorer.exe, and it seems to work normally.

Cool, thanks for the info!
