Desktop Icons without Text


Recommended Posts

Explorer.exe /n, /e, D:\

I can get the icon, but that command only gets me: This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in the Folder Options control.

Is there same way edit desktop's rightclick menu ?

And how to make seperator line ?

No,.. but I managed to add Run... to it (attachment).

The context menu from the Desktop and other folders is located in Explorer.exe and some items in Shell32.dll.

There are some apps like Mmm Free that can modify these context menu's.

How do I make the icons have text?

I love the right-click menus, but on some icons, I want text.

What would I change in the reg-file?

Chage for example:

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

"InfoTip"="@%SystemRoot%\\system32\\SHELL32.dll,-22913"

"NeverShowExt"=""

@=""

To:

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

"InfoTip"="@%SystemRoot%\\system32\\SHELL32.dll,-22913"

"NeverShowExt"=""

@="My Computer" :)

I've had the same problem with some programs,.. I don't know the solution yet but I'm working on it.

Hi!

These shortcuts are great, but i use my taskbar more than the desktop, so i was wondering if there was a way to make customized context menus for my quick launch icons?

Hi kdasummer, welcome to Neowin! :)

You can combine the regs with the folder renaming trick (see the old thread - link in first post).

You can also create new context menu's with YAM (Yet Another Menu).

These context menu's appear on left click (see YAM.html for more info)

I've added a sample (My Computer.mnu) to the attached zip file.

Hello all,

As many people have said before "thanks Herbie". Your icons really are excellent.

Anyway to the point, I have read through your tutorial but admit that I didn't understand too much, so would it be possible for you to create an icon for the upcoming Nero 7?

If you can find the time that would be great. If not well thanks for what you've done so far. :yes:

Here's the new Nero 7 Premium icon. :)

If you used the old version (Nero 6 icon), first merge Remove Nero 7 Premium.reg and then merge Add Nero 7 Premium.reg (it uses the same CLSID address).

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

Here's a little gift for y'all: :D

I've updated the Show/Hide System Files context menu.

This version only works on the English language version of Windows, see ReadMe.txt for info about how to make it work on your Language version.

@ underground1: It's good to see that some people are modifying & creating new ones!

Nice! (Y) :)

@ cooldownguy86: I emailed Nir Sofer about it and he's considering to add a "working folder" option in future versions of NirCmd.

My Internet Explorer don't start maximized?:((

586570733[/snapback]

It opens Internet Explorer @ the last used size (not maximized).

Open Internet Explorer and resize it (not by maximizing it but by dragging the corners) and close it.

I can create an Icon that opens it maximized (using NirCmd).

the new office 03 works great herby! thanks:))

edit: sorry if this has already been asked, but what do I do to make the office 03 double click work? i get the open with dialog again:blush::

The Default command should open "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office11\OSA.exe" -n (New Office Document).

Do the other commands work?

====================================================>

Here's a new Notepad Icon:>

This Icon uses 2 vbs files ("Paste Clipboard.vbs" and "Paste Clipboard & Print.vbs").

The first vbs file opens Notepad and paste the contents from the Clipboard (copied text) into Notepad.

The second vbs file does the same + opens the Printer selection screen.

Install:> Merge "Add Notepad.reg".

Copy "Paste Clipboard.vbs" and "Paste Clipboard & Print.vbs" to your System32 directory.

Refresh your Desktop.

Uninstall:> Merge "Remove Notepad.reg".

Delete "Paste Clipboard.vbs" and "Paste Clipboard & Print.vbs" from your System32 directory.

Refresh your Desktop.
