Customization elements are forced even if the `shell.shl` file is empty

Open Nicryc opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

An empty shell.shl will still customize some aspect of the contextual menu. The following file will result in added icons, frame resizing (especially true for the taskbar contextual menu) and hidden borders.

shell 
{

}

Screenshots

Vanilla Windows taskbar contextual menu on the left and with an empty shell.shl file on the right: taskbar_contextual_menu_diff

Vanilla Windows explorer contextual menu on the left and with an empty shell.shl file on the right: explorer_contextual_menu_diff

Expected behaviour

An empty shell.shl file should leave the vanilla Windows appearance and let the decision to the user to customize it as he wants.

System informations

OS: Windows 10 Shell version: 1.7.0

These are default settings to disable use the following options:

default {
   static-auto=false
}

More options can be added in the future to disable Shell customizations.

Good suggestion, I will try to implement it.
