Hello,

Do we have any solution for adding any application to the Windows desktop right-click menu without manipulating the registry?

In my opinion, Microsoft should add this feature in the System setting.

    There is no other way than adding keys in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background
    as the Shell reads keys there to build the context menu
    You can do a script in Poweshell or other to simplify the task, although it is not complicated to do it manually
