Deployment Method:

NOTE

This applies to both open source and commercial editions of Chocolatey.

1. Enter Your Internal Repository Url

(this should look similar to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/)


2. Setup Your Environment

1. Ensure you are set for organizational deployment

Please see the organizational deployment guide

2. Get the package into your environment

  • Open Source or Commercial:
    • Proxy Repository - Create a proxy nuget repository on Nexus, Artifactory Pro, or a proxy Chocolatey repository on ProGet. Point your upstream to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/. Packages cache on first access automatically. Make sure your choco clients are using your proxy repository as a source and NOT the default community repository. See source command for more information.
    • You can also just download the package and push it to a repository Download

3. Copy Your Script

choco upgrade shmnview -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'1.40'" [other options]

See options you can pass to upgrade.

See best practices for scripting.

Add this to a PowerShell script or use a Batch script with tools and in places where you are calling directly to Chocolatey. If you are integrating, keep in mind enhanced exit codes.

If you do use a PowerShell script, use the following to ensure bad exit codes are shown as failures:


choco upgrade shmnview -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" --version="'1.40'" 
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE

Write-Verbose "Exit code was $exitCode"
$validExitCodes = @(0, 1605, 1614, 1641, 3010)
if ($validExitCodes -contains $exitCode) {
  Exit 0
}

Exit $exitCode

ShellMenuView v1.40
Copyright (c) 2005 - 2017 Nir Sofer
Web Site: http://www.nirsoft.net



Description
===========

ShellMenuView is a small utility that displays the list of static menu
items that appeared in the context menu when you right-click a
file/folder on Windows Explorer, and allows you to easily disable
unwanted menu items.



System Requirements
===================

ShellMenuView works properly on any version of Windows starting from
Windows 2000 and up to Windows 10. You can also use ShellMenuView on
Windows 98 for viewing the menu items list, but the disable/enable
feature won't work on this version of Windows. (The disabling feature is
achieved by adding 'LegacyDisable' key to the desired menu item in the
Registry, and this Registry key is not supported by Windows 98)



Versions History
================


* Version 1.40
  o Added 'Quick Filter' feature (View -> Use Quick Filter or
    Ctrl+Q). When it's turned on, you can type a string in the text-box
    added under the toolbar and ShellMenuView will instantly filter the
    menu items, showing only items that contain the string you typed.

* Version 1.38
  o Added 'Auto Size Columns+Headers' option.

* Version 1.37
  o ShellMenuView now displays menu items that their command string
    is empty but they have DelegateExecute string instead.

* Version 1.36
  o When the menu name is a string resource, ShellMenuView now
    automatically loads the string resource and displays the actual menu
    string.

* Version 1.35
  o Added the menu items of Directory\Background and Drive\Background
    Registry keys.

* Version 1.30
  o Fixed the extension column: For Menu items that are currently not
    assigned to any file extension, the extension column now remains
    empty.
  o Added 'UserChoice Key' column. If the value is 'Yes', it means
    that the reference to the menu item is found in
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Fi
    leExts\[File Extension]\UserChoice
  o Added 'Registry Key' column.
  o Added 'Hide Items Without File Extension' option.

* Version 1.25
  o Fixed ShellMenuView to detect the correct file type, when a file
    extension has a UserChoice key (Windows Vista or later). In previous
    versions, ShellMenuView failed to work properly with all file
    extension that their UserChoice value is different from their file
    type. The UserChoice key is stored under
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Fi
    leExts\[extension]\UserChoice
  o Fixed ShellMenuView to use the correct file type Registry key,
    when there is a CurVer subkey that redirects to other file type key.

* Version 1.21
  o Added secondary sorting support: You can now get a secondary
    sorting, by holding down the shift key while clicking the column
    header. Be aware that you only have to hold down the shift key when
    clicking the second/third/fourth column. To sort the first column you
    should not hold down the Shift key.
  o Fixed the 'Modified Time' column to handle the daylight saving
    time properly.

* Version 1.20
  o Added support for menu items stored under SystemFileAssociations
    Registry key (For Windows 7/2008/Vista)

* Version 1.15
  o Added warnings and restrictions, to prevent the users from
    disabling essential menu commands of Windows operating system.
  o Added documentation to the save command line options.
  o Added /sort command-line option.

* Version 1.12
  o Added an option to open the page of selected extension in
    http://extension.nirsoft.net Web site, which shows you a list of
    programs that can open this file extension.

* Version 1.11
  o Added 'Type Description' column.

* Version 1.10
  o Added support for setting or removing the extended mode of menu
    items. When menu item is in extended mode, the item is displayed only
    if you press the Shift key when the context menu is opened.

* Version 1.07
  o Fixed bug: ShellMenuView crashed on reading Registry value with
    size of 0 bytes.

* Version 1.06
  o Added 'Open In RegEdit' option.

* Version 1.05
  o Fixed bug: ShellMenuView opened in a large window when there is
    no cfg file.

* Version 1.04
  o Fixed bug: The main window lost the focus when the user switched
    to another application and then returned back to ShellMenuView.

* Version 1.03
  o Fixed crash problem that appeared in some computers.

* Version 1.02
  o ShellMenuView now automatically requires to run as administrator
    under Vista.
  o Added 64-bit version of ShellMenuView.

* Version 1.01
  o Added 'Show Tooltips' option.
  o The configuration of ShellMenuView is now saved to cfg file
    instead of the Registry.

* Version 1.00 - First Release.



Using ShellMenuView
===================

ShellMenuView doesn't require any installation process or additional
DLLs. In order to start using it, just copy the executable file
(shmnview.exe) to any folder you like, and run it.
The main window of ShellMenuView displays the list of menu items. You can
select one or more menu item, and enable/disable them.
You can also set or remove the extended mode of menu item. When menu item
is in extended mode, the item is displayed only if you press the Shift
key when the context menu is opened.



Command-Line Options
====================



/stext <Filename>
Save the list of menu commands into a regular text file.

/stab <Filename>
Save the list of menu commands into a tab-delimited text file.

/scomma <Filename>
Save the list of menu commands into a comma-delimited text file (csv).

/stabular <Filename>
Save the list of menu commands into a tabular text file.

/shtml <Filename>
Save the list of menu commands into HTML file (Horizontal).

/sverhtml <Filename>

/sxml <Filename>

/sort <column>
This command-line option can be used with other save options for sorting
by the desired column. If you don't specify this option, the list is
sorted according to the last sort that you made from the user interface.
The <column> parameter can specify the column index (0 for the first
column, 1 for the second column, and so on) or the name of the column,
like "Menu Key" and "File Type". You can specify the '~' prefix character
(e.g: "~Modified Time") if you want to sort in descending order. You can
put multiple /sort in the command-line if you want to sort by multiple
columns.

Examples:
shmnview.exe /shtml "f:\temp\menus.html" /sort 2 /sort ~1
shmnview.exe /shtml "f:\temp\menus.html" /sort "Menu Name" /sort
"Extensions"

/nosort
When you specify this command-line option, the list will be saved without
any sorting.
