FileMenu Error


Gernerally the ussue is that between the WinBatch Filemenu sample menus and some other application that you have installed... they try to install more than the Windows Explorer limit of 200 new right-click context menu menu items.

Options are

  1. Uninstall other application or limit it's menus.

  2. Uninstall Filemenu by deleting following registry key:
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\FileMenu
    

    Note: the * in the key name. Its right at the very tip top of Hkey_Classes_root.

  3. Edit FileMenu menu files and try to reduce the number of added menus. Examine C:\Program Files\WinBatch\System\FileMenu for all filetypes.mnw

    See section on menu files in the Windows Interface language reference manual. probably hit the INDEX button and type "Menu Files"

    Edit above named menu file to remove unneeded items, keeping in mind the required "structure" of the first four columns of the menu file.
