Adding to "send to" option on right click

I went here to see how I can add Photofiltre to the "send to" right-click
option.

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/u...ferguson1.mspx

Following this information, a shortcut was added to the Send-To folder
options, but doesn't work. Nothing happens when I select it to send a pic
to Photofiltre. How can I add PhotoPiltre to the Send-To right-click option
in Vista? Despite the MS infromation, shortcuts don't work in the "send-to"
option folder in Vista.


The PC = HP Pavilion/VistaHomePremium SP/2 w/all updates.
500G HD, 3G Ram, AMD dual-processor.

MS keyboard and HP optical mouse.

Click Start and type shell:sendto to open the SendTo folder. Create a
shortcut
for the photofiltre.exe.

That was easy. Thanks. Always wanted a 'send to Notepad'.

Thanks

Why not just drag and drop ?

But that doesn't work with Vista. I can see Photofiltre.exe there as a
choice, but nothing happens when I click on it to try to send an image to
the program.

What version of Vista do you have? It doesn't work on HomePremium SP/2.

Thanks Shawn, but as I said above, that doesn't work on my version of Vista.
I added the shortcut Photofiltre and Photofiltre.exe and neither work. The
shortcut made in Vista shows as a folder in the "Send To" folder.

I would also like to add Notepad but it dosn't show up on "Create Shortcut"
in Browse, to ad to "Send To." Also notepad shows up 11 times on a Agent
Ransack search, so which do I select to ad to "Send To?" Notepad.exe alone
shows up 6 times. The site doesn't explain these things. The other items in
the Send-To menu aren't folders or shortcuts. They are just names. It's
easy enough to follow so why isn't it working?

It looks like that's what I'll have to do since "Send To" doesn't work with
Photo editing programs. I added one of the six Notepad.exes and that
worked. Now I have to see if I can find MSmail to add. I often send info
from the web to friends. As it is now I have to save things to the
desktop - and you know the routine, open MSmail, etc etc. What a blessing if
I could click on "send to" and WindowsMail opened. :-)
