I ran chere as follows:
chere -i -t mintty -s bash -a -n -e"bash Shell Here" -o "-s140,50"
However, the Windows Explorer context menu reads:
cygwin_bash
not "bash Shell Here", and when clicking on it I get an error dialog:
[directory in which I clicked context menu]
This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this
action.
Create an association in the Set Associations control panel.
I have updated all Cygwin packages to the latest available.
Output of chere -r (bash keys only, all others empty):

Hi Jim,
This has come up a couple of times:
<http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2009-12/msg00868.html>
<http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2010-01/msg00056.html> (continued)
<http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2007-12/msg00157.html>
Basically there's a 32 bit registry and a 64 bit one. chere uses the 32
bit one. This works on 64 bit Windows 7, but not some others.
I thought I'd done a release fixing this. You can try the attached
patch, which should make chere play with the appropriate registry.
Dave.
