Have some news! The Context Menu editor for the System Tools seems to be working properly, the creator saves the unicode ini file properly, had a few problems with unicode decoding within MRP but fingers crossed that has been sorted. How the context menu can look - have used various languages for testing (used Google translate so they might not be grammatically correct!). Spoiler: PC - System Tools - Context Menu - sofar Not all are converted as it takes a lot of time to create the code to make the magic happen but for now this is how it is looking. By default they will be in English if you not touch the C/T Menu tab and alter anything. MSConfig may stay in English as you have to type that anyway to use that command, same with Services. Windows Settings and Windows Update, for now they will be English until i get more time to add those editable options. If you edit the Drive Label and Model Name options to other than English the Creator will save those new wordings but MRP will not decode them so they will look weird. That will take a lot more coding which really i not have the time to do. You can use the new script that will be provided in the Optional folder to change the Model Name, it may look odd in the script but when you change the name it will be correct. Its how command window output is sadly. Drive label can be changed manually via the normal method of right clicking the drive and using rename.
On windows 7 : Imageres - 104 imageres - 105 On windows 10: (zoomed in 2x to be visible). imageres - 104 (no others look like the 105 above) - use a icon viewer on imageres.dll and you will see yourself! shell32 -16778 (closest one could find). As you can see every os has a different set and why it is not as easy to get it to work on all systems as the icon numbering is not the same. *edit* External Icon which is very similar now added. ignore the white background as had to enlarge it be visible to post. It will be the same on all OS's. Why get all flustered over a icon?, it not like it is a desktop picture you look at all the time, also i am puzzled how that looks anything remotely like a tools icon.
at least the icon looks accurate to the system can you attach an extra script for removing the context menu (all items or one script for each item) same for other cmd, powershell and other context menus i mean beside those extra_scripts in the project because sometimes one can mess things up editing the registry as many different hkeys related like this one but those are eg entries Code: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 ;Created by Vishal Gupta for AskVG.com [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\SystemTools] [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\control] [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\cleanmgr] [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\devmgr] [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\servcs] [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\regedit] [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\secctr] [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\msconfig] [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\taskmgr] [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\taskschd] [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\wu]
As for scripts for removing the context menus etc, wouldn't it be more efficient to not choose the options in the first place? After all they are options choose: none, one, a few etc. Each one has a tool-tip to explain what it does.

Have got the 'Windows Settings' and 'Windows Update' System Tools context menu in the Creator's menu editor now. Spoiler: PC Systems Tools Context Menu (completed) MRP 102 is now out of internal testing and onto RC1. After sorting that part out, time to continue with the main code itself.
its only multilingual as i entered the wording (google translated). The user can edit them to their own language. Only MSConfig and Services are in English. Search Index ON : Code: sc config WSearch start= auto >NUL 2>&1 sc start WSearch >NUL 2>&1 sc config SysMain start= auto >NUL 2>&1 sc start SysMain >NUL 2>&1 Reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Wsearch" /v "Start" /t REG_DWORD /d "2" /f >NUL 2>&1 Reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\Wsearch" /v "Start" /t REG_DWORD /d "2" /f >NUL 2>&1 REG add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\SysMain" /v "Start" /t REG_DWORD /d "2" /f >NUL 2>&1
its ok icons sorted for the time being Although i was going to make a new one for the Decompile.exe (it has a few inside for different icon view sizes), also one for the Query Tool. They not on the priority list at the moment.
MRP 102 at RC3 stage. Have updated the Creator v6 and MRP code so that you can also change the Command and PowerShell prompts. The Elevated one is separated. Default English : Command > Command >> Command Elevated PowerShell > PowerShell >> Powershell Elevated You can edit the Command & Powershell words as you wish and the Elevated as a separate item, so you could have for example: Command Prompt as the main wording, and Administrator as the 2nd. which would make: Command Prompt >Command Prompt >> Command Prompt Administrator Hard to explain in words , you will see on the editor part. Install test worked as intended. Hopefully not long now til it will become a BC (Baseline Candidate) then once happy with that, baseline. Hopefully the picture below, (click to enlarge), shows how it works... There will be scripts for manual changes to the Command/Powershell lines if you require. Will need a bit of editing but have commented the SET variables to edit to your language. The only context menus that are still in English are the Control Panel submenus. I will get around to those another time as this little lot alone has taken about 5 days now to get to work and fed up editing.
