        I am sorry to say this, but you most likely have no option of doing so unless you patch(modify the resources) of explorer.exe. I suggest you rather add your program to the control panel. One way of doing this is by purchasing a third-party program that adds programs to the control panel. Another free option is to download this VBScript file. You need to edit it, because it was originally for placing TweakUI to the control panel. Please mail me with any questions or comments. Best Regards Richard Faulkner
