Add “New > Python File” option to Windows Explorer context menu during installation #128148
Comments
@zooba Should (and can) this be done on our side or on Windows' side? |
For the users, maybe a tweak in regedit will do, like change/add some values in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Python.File, I've tried without success. It'd be very convenient if the Python installer does it for users. |
This would be a good addition in my opinion! Something like this should work I think?
The uninstaller would also have to be modified to clean these up. @Unknownuserfrommars do you plan to open a PR or are other users free to do so? |
@StanFromIreland It's okay, you can feel free to open a PR |
Feature or enhancement
Proposal:
Hello Python Dev Team,
I’d like to suggest adding an option to create a new Python file directly from the Windows Explorer New context menu. This feature could be integrated into the Python installer for Windows. It would save users from having to manually configure the Windows Registry to achieve this functionality.
