从Windows资源管理器的文件上下文菜单中执行AutoIt脚本

Question

How to make an AutoIt script run as a file verb? For eg WinRAR we can right click and compress selected file (or other stuff). How can I make an AutoIt script appear in Windows Explorer's file context menu like that?

Answer 1

You can register your script's .exe in context menu to a file type:

1. Open regedit.exe and find your file type in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT (for example .rar ). Get the value from there (mine was 7-Zip.rar ).
2. Go to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\\<your_value> and add new subKey with your name (I added ScriptOpen ).
3. Add subKey command with Default parameter as "<path_to_your_exe> "%1"" .

Here is an example of how to do it from your script (compiled to .exe):

RegWrite("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\7-Zip.rar\shell\ScriptOpen")
RegWrite("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\7-Zip.rar\shell\ScriptOpen", "", "REG_SZ", "Open with my script")
RegWrite("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\7-Zip.rar\shell\ScriptOpen\command")
RegWrite("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\7-Zip.rar\shell\ScriptOpen\command", "", "REG_SZ", """" & @AutoItExe & """ ""%1""")

Check out these functions:

• _ShellFile()
  _{Create an entry in the shell contextmenu when selecting an assigned filetype. Includes the program icon as well.}

• _ShellFolder()
  _{Create an entry in the shell contextmenu when selecting a folder. Includes the program icon as well.}

• _ContextMenu()
