Showing windows (file/directory) context menu in c# winforms application

Hi, I'm trying to display standard file/directory context menu in WinForms application - I'd like to enable the user to do things with files in my application as he could in Explorer.

There should be two options

  • popup the context menu with some system call
  • read everything from the system context menu and insert it into my context menu

Could you please point me in the right direction? Thanks

+2  A: 

I have written a .NET library to allow this. You can find it here:

http://gong-shell.sourceforge.net/

The class you're looking for is ShellContextMenu within that library.
