I hope you folks don't mind this question and don't consider it an abuse from my part.

I've been trying to create a context menu for an application, so that when I right-click the Desktop, I immediately open the application's menu and hit the name of the application.

The thing is, the name of the application includes a & in the name, and when used in "MUIVerb"="Application&Name", & will have a special meaning, turning the next character (N) into a hotkey.

I've been trying to look around for info, but I just can't find anything useful.

Spybot does add a right-click context menu "Scan using Spybot-Search&Destroy. I searched the registry for this entry, but found nothing. I imagine you folks are mapping it, somehow?

Would you be able to point me in the right direction?

Again, I hope this isn't an abuse.


Thank you

I had been pointed in the right direction, right after I started this thread. :laugh:

I do appreciate your feedback. :)

No wonder I couldn't find Spybot's entry in the registry. I didn't realize I had to use two ampersand characters. I didn't know about it before.

Next time I'll know I'll have to use two &&, one being an escape character.


Thank you!
