[WiX-users] ShellNew/FileName
It seems like Wix doesn't support the ShellNew/FileName registry key under Extensions in order to allow Windows Explorer's New command to create a new file. Is it better to start with what Wix does provide using Extension and then add some extra registry keys to extend it or to do the whole setup using Registry entries for more complicated requirements like this?
