Right click in explorer offers to open with Take Command or TCC

[HarvB]

Hi,

I thought when I installed, I chose to use the context menu. But right clicking on a directory in windows 11 does not offer to open with Take Command. Is that a feature or some other setting I missed?

thanks

Look for the batch files "tcchere.btm" and "tcmdhere.btm" in your install directory. You'll need to run these in an elevated TCC, i.e. "Run as administrator."

Cool - thanks very much. Two additional questions. 1) So what does the content menu option during the installer do? 2) is there a way in windows 11 that it is part of the immediate right context menu, not the "Show more options" sub menu?

I always use the old style "right click context menu", where all options are shown. This (below) is part of a batch file I run on new installations of Windows 11. Note that %sudo% is gsudo, if you're not familiar with it you should be.

echo first one is the old right click context menu, the next 4 should be obvious

%sudo% reg add "HKCU\Software\Classes\CLSID\{86ca1aa0-34aa-4e8b-a509-50c905bae2a2}\InprocServer32" /f /ve
%sudo% reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced /v HideFileExt     /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
%sudo% reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced /v Hidden          /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
%sudo% reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced /v ShowSuperHidden /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
%sudo% reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced /V UseCompactMode  /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f

%sudo% taskkill /im explorer.exe /f
start explorer.exe
