Option to remove grepWin context menu integration #442

Open Richard-L opened 9 months ago

First off want to say that grepWin is absolutely wonderful, and has enabled a very niche requirement I've had in my workflow that I've searched high and low for across different apps, powershell scripts, etc. So thank you for making grepWin 🙏

I have one issue in that I cannot disable the context menu integration in these two cases on Win11: image image

I will try to hack these away with third party context menu editing tools, but truthfully it's necessary that grepWin allows user control over this. At least in the installer, but better yet inside settings.

Thanks for considering.

if you don't want/need the context menu, just use the portable version instead of the msi installer.

Thanks for responding.

I'm quite happy to have the tool installed properly. It helps to make Windows find it as a recognised app in things like quick search from the task bar, etc.
