I recently installed Notepad++. But I do not find it on the Right Click New Menu of Context Menu. How to add it.
Or any other Application to the Right Click New Menu of Context Menu for that matter.
My Os is Windows 8.1.

It asks to create during installation of notepad++. Try reinstalling the latest version.

I'm not sure about it will ask you about installation if it works than good if not then go for apps that helps you to add menu in new context menu
Download ShellMenuNew - standaloneinstaller.co
Edit, Add, Remove items from New Context Menu in Window

[MENTION=324155]charylortiz[/MENTION] You are right. It will not ask you when installing. And thanks for the links. I had already seen them. But I'll try once again.
