right-click context menu on files and folders.
The extension works great in Windows Explorer but has trouble with items in

appears only once on all other "file system objects" I've tried so far.
I can work around this by adding my shell extension to * and Directories
instead, but I ...

Hi folks,
We're working on the installer for an XP thumbnail extraction shell
extension COM component. Does anyone know if "registration free COM"

If it's compatible, can ...
