Hi, is there a way I could select some files in Windows Explorer and then open them with a progam from the SyMenu?
All the programs are portable programs and batch files on a flash drive.
In Windows, the Right Click -> Send To menu has this kind of behavior.

Unfortunately the contextual menu component I'm using for SyMenu doesn't allow other contextual menus rising from it. So we can forget the right click thing.

But something in your post turn on a light in my mind.

Using your suggestion along with the extension manager we have the solution!
When you have more than one registered program for a single extension, the extension manager doesn't launch a program but simply popups a little box where you can select the program to use to open the file... exactly as Windows does.
What do you think about it?
