I love it! But for some reason, the "develop->editors->vs code" item doesn't work. Anyone else know how to fix this issue?

Hi! Check your path on the settings file (C:\Program Files\Nilesoft\Shell\shell.shl), by default it tries to launch it using "code.exe", which doesn't work for me at least, i changed line 162 to the full path of my visual studio code installation which is by default C:\Users\ YOUR_USER \AppData\Local\Programs\Microsoft VS Code\Code.exe

Really wanted to use this but the 'glyphs' all show up as a blank rectangle for some reason and it just made everything feel terrible. Sigh.

If anybody has an idea how to fix it I'm all ears but otherwise I'm gonna have to sit it out.

0:48 - what a beating I took. You wrote "winget install shell", but the correct is "winget search shell". I would do the first command and get an endless loop of installation until I decided to try "search" instead of "install". I suggest posting a comment rectifying this detail so that others can understand it better.

Why did I get here? Your script "One Tool for Everything" was not working on my new notebook, I kept getting an error message: "Update ms-resource:appDisplayName?" on the "Install" screen and nothing worked. After a lot of head-breaking I realized that the "winget" tool was not working properly. Then I watched a video on how to install it from the MS Store and everything was solved.

I believe that this barrier was put up on purpose by an agreement between the notebook manufacturer and Micro$oft just to limit the user. Based on this, I decided to write this novella to contextualize all future viewers of this content who have the same problem.

I'm Brazilian, I've been following your channel since the beginning of 2018, I love your content, I've already put many of them into practice and many Linux ones went all wrong due to my inexperience in the system, lol. My English is poor so I used "DeepL translator" to write all this, so please forgive grammatical mistakes.

Your channel is a glue between the advanced and common user like me, I have been learning so much and improving my system with each new material. I have been following "One Tool for Everything" since the beginning when you were inspired by "Farag2". And this tool has improved my equipment performance considerably extending the life of my work pc.

Thanks for the excellent work, God bless you and your family! Shalom!

Hi Chis, I install Nilesoft Shell using the shell prompt and since them my left click on desktop requires a manual explorer.exe restart. Would happen to have encountered this? Uninstalling Shell doesn't fix the issue and I tried several method found online for people experiencing the same issue (not always related to Shell installation) without success. Do you happen to know a way to fix this (with or without keeping Shell) ?

Hi Chris, I'm still on Windows 10, but having same issue as "cedricbrice" who commented above. Any ideas? Right click context window not working without Exporer.exe restart. Initial install of Nilesoft Shell was fine, but every update done using Update Installs with your Tech Utility v23.03.07 Initiates the problem and only System Recovery point from pre-update gets me back working again. Uninstall of the Nilesoft Shell only does NOT resolve.

Hey Chris, I just downloaded the latest version of Shell from Nilesoft and it no longer uses the .shl file and instead has a .nss file, could you update the context command for the current version? I would appreciate that alot!
