Hi All,
This is a renewal of thread that was posted a while back about strange
behavior while debugging NSE's under Vista. As Chuck Chopp noted, it
might have something to do with UAC.
Using VS2005, one sets Explorer.exe to be the launch process to debug

Dynamic submenu in context menu extension
Tue, 19 Feb 2008 11:10:29 +0530
My context menu extension contains a large number of sub items and I cannot
know how many in QueryContextMenu so I add just the one dummy item to the
sub menu (as suggested by the docs) and return 2 (parent menu item having

IContextMenu::HandleMenuMsg2 to ...

Can items be deleted while someone still references the IShellItem?
Thu, 14 Feb 2008 03:04:08 +0100
Hi,
I'm thinking about redesigning my shell browsing programs to use the
IShellItem interface instead of pIDLs and am evaluating the possible
drawbacks of such a step.
Long time ago I stored each item's relative pIDL and its parent item's
IShellFolder interface pointer with the item in the treeview/listv ...

Folder view auto arrange - IShellFolder?
Mon, 11 Feb 2008 10:45:51 -0500
I'm wondering about how to organize a folder
view. In WinME, for instance, there's a bug that
causes the contents to often be sprawled out in
a folder, causing a horizontal scrollbar to show.
In XP there's a bug that causes Explorer to forget
view settings. (Bill G. seems to have a thing about
those giant ic ...

IContextMenu::GetCommandString - purpose of GCS_VERBICONW?
Wed, 06 Feb 2008 02:21:58 +0100
Hi,
I came across GCS_VERBICONW in shobjidl.h. It's a flag for
IContextMenu::GetCommandString(), but not mentioned in the docs. I guess
it has been introduced with Vista.
Does anybody know its purpose? Judging by its name and the comment "icon
string (unicode)", I'd say it may be used to retrieve strings t ...

however when I do this on Windows XP using the DefView it doesn't display a
folder icon. The flag it is passing in is 0.
