I would like to edit the "New" submenu that comes up when I right click within a folder. I know that to do that, I need to edit the registry with a ShellNew entry. I'm trying to add an option to open a New Word 2010 document but do not know the correct subfolder to add to the .docx menu. I know for Word 2007 the folder is "Word.Document.12". What it is for 2010? I've tried "Word.Document.14" but it doesn't work.

How can I add an item to the 'new' context menu?

  • Thanks for responding, but that doesn't tell me specifically what extension or folder name I need for Word 2010.

    Example:

    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT.docx....?]

    Right now the folder has:

    .docx\Word.Document.12\ShellNew

    That creates a new 2007 word document. What do I need in the .docx.... space to add a new Word 2010 document?

  • @Naomi You would make .docx be opened by word 2010 by default I guess. – Roke Nov 06 '15 at 02:15
