    I see that the current value is
    :mscontacts
    I have Right Menu. What would be the format of the value?
    :rkey.lnk
    or something else?
    I have tried a few but haven't got it working yet.
    Thanks,
    Neil

    if you have right menu all you have to do is enable the app (rkey.exe) and it will take over your right menu no reg hack needed

    This does not happen with WM 6.1 and the sliding menu, for me at least.
    Whatever the particular plugin has set overrides the right menu.
    I'll keep 'hacking'.

    As you can tell, I never got a response to the same question and I haven't figured it out either.

    Would it just look something like this:
    \program files\live search\livesearch.exe ?
