I'm wondering how to go about adding a menu item to explorers right click context menu. For instance, when I right click on a file I get things like winrars "Add to archive" I want something like that and I'm wondering how to do it with python.

To Add more items to explorer right click menu, you just need to add some registry keys.

For example, take a look at this site, there is some examples and some tools.

The question was for Windows Explorer, not IE, though the _winreg link is useful.
