Hi Greg,
Below is a register file that adds context menu items when you right click on a .dll file which allows me to run an “Elevate.exe” on the dll. This example will adds 3 options Run as Administrator Elevate Register Elevate UnRegister It may help you adding a context menu item on a .sln with a bit of modification. I am running windows 10 and it works on my machine.

My Blog Post <https://gfkeogh.blogspot.com.au/2015/04/solution-open-with-batch-build.html> on doing this is still online. On Windows 10 the registry changes have no effect. I spent a few hours searching and experimenting today to get it working, but no luck. Has anyone fiddled in this area? Maybe there are other ways of getting a "right click to build" facility. I really miss the convenience of those commands on the .sln file, and on other extensions as well. Greg K
