Manage right-click - Customize context menu

[bruxy70]

Easily manage the right click actions to edit, open at. Right now this is all over the place, different applications add right-click extensions and it is a mess. You can somehow change the default open application. But it would be great to be able to manage other actions to for example edit e.g Tiff file, HTML file, compile, etc.

+1 for editing of the right-click menu.

It would also be nice if programs had to ask for permission before they can insert themselves into the right-click menu. Although that's probably more of a general Windows feature request that a PowerToys one.

+1 for customizing the context menu

I think this idea should be generalized to expose various shell configuration options (e.g. win+x menu), all of those configurations are available in the registry, and Power toys already has elevation specific tools.

For example. I'm trying to right-click a .bat file. Had to spend a decent 15 minutes to of registry editing to get the Open with menu there so I can open it with VS Code. alas, even after the menu is there, it still opens up to be run, not to for editing.
