In Windows 7 SP1 a regular verb works fine from a shortcut, but apparently not
a subcommand. OTOH, Windows 10 seems to have no problem with this.
I just tested the following subcommand for editing .bat files with notepad:
reg add
HKCU\Software\Classes\batfile\shell\editother\shell\editwithnotepad\command
reg add HKCU\Software\Classes\batfile\shell\editother /v MUIVerb /d "Edit
Other"
reg add HKCU\Software\Classes\batfile\shell\editother /v Subcommands
reg add HKCU\Software\Classes\batfile\shell\editother\shell\editwithnotepad
/v MUIVerb /d "Edit With Notepad"
reg add
HKCU\Software\Classes\batfile\shell\editother\shell\editwithnotepad\command /ve
/d "C:\Windows\notepad.exe %1"
When accessed from the file itself, this works fine in both Windows 7 SP1 and
Windows 10 RTM. When accessed from a shortcut, the command works in Windows 10
but does nothing in Windows 7. This independently confirms the issue reported
by Thijs as a Windows 7 bug/limitation.
