How to host a rooted namespace extension in Windows Explorer -


there method create namespace extension rooted in particular folder.

it involves creating folder name like:

my custom nse.{785ee551-dee1-4f57-a8c9-0ef76f346a29} 

and windows explorer automatically host nse of clsid @ location.

but life of me cannot find syntax anymore. used on msdn in namespace extension documentation, , listed 3 ways namespace windows explorer - 1 of them.

what's syntax - it's driving me crazy!

i found it. there 3 ways namespace extension "my computer"

specifying namespace extension's location

a) add entry registry

\software    \microsoft       \windows          \currentversion             \explorer                \(virtual folder name)                   \namespace                      \{785ee551-dee1-4f57-a8c9-0ef76f346a29} 

where "virtual folder name" can 1 of

  • mycomputer
  • desktop
  • controlpanel
  • networkneighborhood
  • networkneighborhood\entirenetwork
  • remotecomputer

b) create folder named

my custom nse.{785ee551-dee1-4f57-a8c9-0ef76f346a29} 

c) create read-only system folder, create desktop.ini file, , add:
