Import settings/tools does not put tools in shell menu

Post by Martin Berg »

Hi!

I'm trying to distribute tools in the shell menu to all our users, but annoyingly, neither "import tools" nor "import settings" actually seems to put the tools into the "Shell Menu" folder, even though that is implied. "Import settings" specifically asks if I want to to import shell menu tools, but it does not seem to do that.

I think this is a bug, any suggestions for workarounds? Command line functions or anything that works for many users would be great :)

Edit: Btw, thanks for this Shell Menu feature, I think I suggested it several years back when I implemented my own shell menu through windows registry and command line functions!

Hello, Martin Berg

Thank you for the report, we can reproduce this here, and as you said it seems that shell items are not being properly imported.
I am escalating this to the Dev team for review.

Kind regards,
