I don't understand why it couldn't just trigger the underlying context menu options Windows has registered for that filetype, but I'm not nearly as smart as Jamal with this stuff, so... *grin*

Just shift-f10. Jamal, is there a way of making the applications key bring up this menu instead, and can the menu be customized? For example, I do not want five different "scan thfile for viruses" options, same with zipping. Could FileDir have a wizard that lets you remove options from the menu it displays? I would not expect it to modify the actual Windows Explorer context menu (though that would be really great). 

Have a great day,

Will this come up with the applications key as well as Shift+F10, 
or

does that require deeper drilling of the keyboard?

Based on feedback like yours, I added a Context Menu command, 
Shift+F10,
a while ago. It provides most, though not all, of the 
functionality of
that menu in Windows Explorer. Other functionality, and more, 
is
sometimes provided by other FileDir commands or menus. If you 
find

something missing, let me know.

In FileDir, is there a way to access the standard Windows 
context

menu for files and folders? I liked FileDir when I tried it, but
the absence of this menu was a big turn-off.



Have a great day,
