    Hello! I came accross the article http://www.codeproject.com/tips/dirclean.asp[^] which is about some handy utility. Shell extension DLL is provided. Can somebody please tell me how to register this shell extension trough console maybe? I really don't want to learn about shell extensions right now. All I want, is to use this utility. P.S. I'm reposting this question in this message board. I made a mistake and post it to the C++ board. Best regards, Rostfrei

      aren't you able to register the dll using regsvr32 ? Somethings seem HARD to do, until we know how to do them. ;-) _AnShUmAn_

        regsvr32 C:\path\to\dirclean.dll If regsvr32 isn't in your path, cd to the system32 directory first.
