Hi,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A!

As far as I'm concerned, to realize this, you need to implement a "shell extension". The shell lets us add pages to the property sheet by using a type of shell extension called a property sheet handler.

In the case, you could try to build a shell extension which implements IShellPropSheetExt.

For more details, I suggest you could refer to the Docs and thread:
