Windows - Custom context menu

[Derek]

Scenario: High school student has no context menu in Windows explorer (disabled in policy) because it offers too much temptation to 'play'.
Specifically; New>Shortcut provides a command line they can use maliciously.

Unfortunately, they are required to do some things during certain lessons that need a context menu.

Apparently it's possible to customize Windows explorer context menu by tweaking Shell32 - so I am told!
I've not looked into this yet, so i'm about to google it and figured i'd stop by here first.
Anyone know anything about this?

aparently, the context menu keys are all stored as follows

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shellex\ContextMenuHan dlers
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shellex\ContextMenuHandle rs
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shellex\ContextMenuHandler s

These 4 keys are where the Right-Click menu options are stored for folders, directories, and drives. To remove a right-click context menu item, you could delete any of the sub-keys that are below these keys.

so i would assume that createing entrys would be much the same

Hey Derek, did you ever find a working solution to the context menu?
