Add to Windows Shell Extension Context Menu

Question

I have read these:

Adding item to the Desktop context menu in Windows

http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=169474

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb776852(VS.85).aspx

But I cannot find an up-to-date and straightforward piece of information on how to create a context menu item.

I'm sure it's in msdn somewhere, but I can't find it.

Thanks.

There's an article on TSS.

I'm having trouble with: "You make sure that the .BATCHRESULTS node exists in the registry’s HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT (HKCR) node. If it doesn’t exist, you create it and set its default value to an arbitrary string—typically, BatchResultsFile. Next, you create a new entry under HKCR and name it after this arbitrarily chosen string. The BatchResultsFile node will contain the details of the shell configuration for .BATCHRESULTS files. " When I do the second part, it says that it already exists.

Take a look at samples in All-In-One Code Framework.
