Question:

I had registered and got my personal license key. How to use the license key I got while registration? Where to enter it? 

Answer:

You may easily append custom items to the Windows Explorer Shell context menu from your .Net application, as specified in the step-by-step manual, that is provided with Windows Explorer Context Menu. Press Windows Start Menu -> “All Programs” -> “Windows Explorer Context Menu” -> “Explorer Context Menu – Manual”. In the opened window please go to “Step-by-step Tutorial”. Follow its steps to get your custom items appended to Windows Explorer Context Menu.

On the step 3.1 in details described, how to use your license information. It is very easy (only 2 lines of template code) and detailed examples provided on both C# and VB:

Step 3.1

(From the step-by-step manual in program help and additional 263-page PDF tutorial )

Initialize License Information

After you had created empty AddThisApplicationItemsToShellMenu() method and call it, as was described on the step 3, it's time to write this method content.

First two lines of it are your license information initializations. If you will not define them or define in them invalid license information, shell menu items of your application will work with demo version restrictions.

C# Code:

       /// <summary>

       /// Re-load menu items of this application,

       /// that should be shown in Windows shell

       /// context menu, to Windows shell context

       /// menu, for they to be shown

       /// </summary>

        private void AddThisApplicationItemsToShellMenu()

       {

           #region Update license information

           //

           // Here you should specify your

           // license information.

           //

           // It should be assigned before

           // you will specify your application

           // menu items, that should be shown

           // in Windows shell context menu

           //

           ShellMenu.LicenseOwner = "Demo Version";

           ShellMenu.LicenseKey = "XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX";

           #endregion

           ...

        }

VB Code:

           ''' <summary>

        ''' Re-load menu items of this application,

        ''' that should be shown in Windows shell

           ''' context menu, to Windows shell context

       ''' menu, for they to be shown

       ''' </summary>

       Private Sub AddThisApplicationItemsToShellMenu()

           ' "Update license information"

           '

           ' Here you should specify your

           ' license information.

          '

          ' It should be assigned before

          ' you will specify your application

          ' menu items, that should be shown

          ' in Windows shell context menu

          '

          ShellMenu.LicenseOwner = "Demo Version"

          ShellMenu.LicenseKey = "XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX"

             ...

       End Sub

To the "LicenseOwner" field of ShellMenu class you should assign name or organization or personal entity, that you used while registration. To the "LicenseKey" field please assign license key, that you had got while registration.
