Send to feature is not working properly, i tested on different types items like on desktop shortcuts & folders. also from other drives not visible

there is no solution for now: https://github.com/moudey/Shell/issues/319

i am trying to recreate the entire "Send To" menu so that the system one can be replaced

• system shortcuts like "Compressed (zipped) folder" and "Mail recipient" I can't find a system command that does the same
• all shortcuts that point to the exe are recognized automatically and they work
• shortcuts of a driver, folder, and all other files (with extensions .exe files) I still haven't found a simple solution to make them work when I'm done with most of the menu I'll let you know

Hi @RubicBG, Can you share your progress config with us so we can use it while waiting complete solution ?

Shell v1.9.10 on Microsoft Windows 11 Pro, v10.0.22621, build 22621

In addition to #319 and #392 , I'm also experiencing weird results depending on the extension of the file name I'm right clicking on.

Below is what is shown correctly if I right click on an .mp3 file. 46 targets starting with "0file-smart-rename-only (bat) _" and ending with "file-today-mvtoday":

If I right click on a .log file, only the first of the 46 targets is shown:

[RubicBG]

• only recognizes shortcuts in the SendTo folder (max number: 12)
• only shows commands that represent executables and paths, all other formats are omitted (the path.type(path) function does not work properly to recognize other cases)
• "Fax recipient" and "Bluetooth device" commands do not accept arguments for some unknown reason
• "Compressed (zipped) folder" I can't find a system command that does the same
• "Mail recipient" can make a mail without an attach file - it may work for a certain mail client, but it doesn't work with mine

* only recognizes shortcuts in the SendTo folder (max number: 12)

Forgive my ignorance as I'm still new to the Nilesoft Shell app: is 12 an imposed limit by the Nilesoft Shell executable, or just a number you picked because your own scripting use case doesn't need more than 12?

[RubicBG]

I don't use the SendTo menu much - and I only have 5 executables in there 😁😇 For testing purposes 12 was more than enough for me
