I am sure there is one of Brink's tutorials on this site which covers that.

I'm trying to create a "Blank File" context menu. I can do it by adding a NoExtension String to \HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.txt\ShellNew\Config But that creates a blank file named "New Text Document" without an extension. This works, but I'd like to 1.) not remove the ability to add a `.txt` file, & 2.) Have it's default value be "Blank File" rather than "New Text Document"

I've been looking for a tutorial on how to create a new context menu item... But they are just to add them to an existing file type. I could easily just pick a random extension I don't use & have it set to "NoExtension" but you mention a tutorial that may lead me where I want to end up. Can you link to it?
