OpenWithEx

OpenWithEx is an application meant to replicate the classic Open With dialog with styles ranging from Windows 95 to Windows 7.

Translation

See TRANSLATION.md.

Compilation

Building the application

Needed:

  • Visual Studio 2022 with C++ desktop development workload

To build OpenWithEx and its configurator, simply open OpenWithEx.sln and build the projects in the configurations you want. If you want to build the installer, you must build the following projects and configurations:

  • OpenWithEx, Release x64
  • OpenWithEx, Release x86
  • OpenWithExConfig, Release x64

Building the installer

Needed:

NOTE: After copying the files for AccessControl into your NSIS installation, you need to go into your NSIS plugins directory (typically located at C:\Program Files (x86)\NSIS\Plugins) and copy the AccessControl.dll files from i386-ansi and i386-unicode to x86-ansi and x86-unicode. I'm not sure why this distinction is made, but not having the files in the x86 folder breaks compilation.

Run the script at installer\build_installer.cmd.
