Add "Save as" to context menu

[rileypetty]

I can't seem to figure out how to add the "Save as" function to the context menu when right-clicking on a (jpeg) file or any file. I've added an exe program once before and it worked fine but never where you hover over a file and right-click and explorer pops up for selecting where to save the file. Thanks for any suggestions you may be able to give me.

The following was a comment made in the following posting, most of the posting is not relevant to your question.


"Now we come to "Save as..." as the question. To do a "Save as..." Windows expects to see:
. a formal extension definition
. a file extension handler CLSID
. a "filter" driver reference
. a handler application for the conversion to another file type"

I was able to solve my problem another way. I ran across a website - maketecheasier.com - that had an example for adding the "Copy To" and "Move To" functions to the Context Menu using the registry and CLSID. The name of the article on the website is "Customize the Right Click Menu in Windows 7" and it works just fine. Thanks
