Facility by Value

Facility by Name

• The order in the menu is the alpha order of the <verb>
• The menu text is the "shell\<verb>\(default)" REG_SZ text
  • i.e. the menu doesn't have to be in the alpha order of the menu text
• Add "&" in the text to specify the keyboard shortcut

• Command Prompt support
  • HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\01MenuCmd --> Directory\ContextMenus\MenuCmd
  • HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\background\shell\01MenuCmd --> Directory\ContextMenus\MenuCmd
  • HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\ContextMenus\MenuCmd
    • open --> Command Prompt
    • runas --> Command Prompt Elevated
• PowerShell support
  • HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\02MenuPowerShell --> Directory\ContextMenus\MenuPowerShell
  • HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\background\shell\02MenuPowerShell --> Directory\ContextMenus\MenuPowerShell
  • HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\ContextMenus\MenuPowerShell
    • open --> PowerShell
    • runas --> PowerShell Elevated

• GIT Prompts
  • HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\03MenuGIT --> Directory\ContextMenus\MenuGIT
  • HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\background\shell\03MenuGIT --> Directory\ContextMenus\MenuGIT
  • HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\ContextMenus\MenuGIT
    • git_gui --> GIT GUI
    • git_shell --> GIT BASH

• Set the application's icon via the "Icon" REG_SZ on the parent and child nodes
• Enable the UAC icon via the "HasLUAShield" REG_SZ on the elevated nodes
  • Note, this has no effect on whether elevation is applied or not. It's purely cosmetic.
  • If Icon is also set, it's a tiny icon in the bottom right
  • If Icon isn't set, it's a full sized icon of the shield
• Add the "Extended" REG_SZ on the (old) settings that you want to hide in the Shift Right-Click menu
  • I add these, instead of deleting the entire node because A) TrustedInstaller only has access B) Installers will put them back again
  • You'll get a error/warning when merging the registry file if they are owned by TrustedInstaller (not an issue)

As an Administrator:

1. Close Windows Media Center (and turn off any Windows Media Center Extenders)
2. File Explorer | Options - Select "Show hidden file, folders, and drives"
3. File Explorer | Options - Uncheck "Hide protected operating system files"
4. File Explorer - rename these (e.g. Cache --> Cache.old)
1. %ProgramData%\Microsoft\PlayReady\mspr.hds
2. %ProgramData%\Microsoft\PlayReady\cache
3. %ProgramData%\Microsoft\eHome\mcendindiv.hds
4. %ProgramData%\Microsoft\eHome\cache
5. Download ResetDRM.exe from the Microsoft Download Center (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?LinkId=105000)
6. Extract the EXE using WinRAR (etc) 
1. You need to use WinRAR to do the extraction because the EXE's self-extraction only supports Windows XP
7. Open an Administrator Command Prompt (Win+X, A)
8. Run "CleanDRM.exe -v"
9. Open Windows Media Center
10. Update PlayReady via "Settings | TV | TV Signal | Update PlayReady"
11. (Revert) File Explorer | Options - Select "Show hidden file, folders, and drives"
12. (Revert) File Explorer | Options - Uncheck "Hide protected operating system files"

Note, this isn't an official Microsoft solution. It's what I cobbled together from multiple posts on this issue.

Andrew Richards and Larry Larsen host this deep dive into the tools used on the tech support show Defrag and walk you through how to use many Windows diagnostic tools found on SysInternals.
