Disclaimer: This is not intended as a programming question. I'm looking for experience and/or references to resources. I tried asking this question in Q&A and wasn't successful posting it, as any keyword I specified was rejected. Before you condemn me for asking here, I have searched on both Microsoft Docs[^] and general Googling with little or no success.
I have a Windows shell extension for an in-house diagnostic tool. Under Windows 11, the context menu entry it supplies is relegated to the "Show more options" submenu in Explorer. Naturally, I'd like to make my context menu entry a 1st class citizen. There is exactly one example that purports to demonstrate how to do this, and the comments indicate that it doesn't work. Microsoft's documentation isn't coherent on the subject. The gist of it seems to be that your application needs to be packaged like a UWP app, which requires a signing certificate and a whole lot of other bric-a-brac. By their own admission, VS2019 doesn't include the "tooling" to make this easy.
Has anyone done this, or do they have any suggestions?

An optimist believes we live in the best of all worlds.
A pessimist believed we live in the best of all worlds.

Alternate second line: Yes, I'm afraid so.
Another optimist/pessimist:
Optimist: The bottle is still half full.
Pessimist: It is half empty already.
Optimist: Yes, but I am half full, too!

If you put a quantum computer into a cage, will you then know if it has produced an answer?

YES. THIS
That's been the gist of my reply to this question for about 30 years now.
It never ceases to amuse me how bent out of shape some people get if you refuse to answer until they do.
Seems to shut them up though when you talk about being precisely at the mid-point between work and home.
At that stage, the question I've asked stops seeming so trivial

The pessimist: “It cannot get worse than this”.
The optimist: “Yes, it can”.

When it can't possibly get any worse, even the pessimist fails.

An optimist believes that we live in the best of all possible worlds. A pessimist fears that this is true.
