I've recently started to use Dropbox. It creates a few different context menu options to the standard Windows context menu and I'd like to add it to my custom context menu. How do I that?
I've used nirsoft's shellexview to view some context menu items for it (shown below) but I'm not sure how to work with it.
There are two changes that I see. First is the [move to dropbox] link shown below:
The other one... and it's more valuable to me... is the one that shows up when you right click on a file within the dropbox folder. How do I add all of these to my menu... and can it be aware to only show up within the dropbox folder?
If you add the following command to your context menu (e.g. on All files and folders) it will put back the Dropbox menu items. Dropbox itself decides whether to actually show them or not so they'll still only appear inside the Dropbox folder.
HJi, can you explain to me how to add this command ? i have the same problem with Dropbox context menu not appearing and i have absolutely no idea of how you do that ???
Have you tried uninstalling/installing Dropbox? A few days ago Dropbox was updated on my system and acted like a new install. I needed to go through the entire setup process again. Maybe it's something similar in your case.
Yes, i did that already... It's a shame because sharing a link straight to dropbox is a feature i use often... also the ability to keep files online or local by a sumple click...
Thank you
Can't manage to add a context menu in 'All file and folders' (it opens an error popup saying 'Application not found') but creating a button works.
Not the best practice, but anyway it works.
thank you
will try to find how to make it work as a context menu now.
Pick a file/folder in Dropbox.
Run
Pick the entry you want from the list. The entries in the red box are probably all from Dropbox.
Copy Command.
Paste the command into a button or add as a context menu.
Repeat for all entries.
