As all MSE users would know, the context-menu item that it adds to Explorer is really long, with one whole sentence "Scan with Microsoft Security Essentials...". Is there a way to edit this and shorten it?
I figured out the the file shellext.dll
is responsible for registering the context menu. I used ResEdit to edit the DLL and changed the string table entry from Scan with ($BrandName)
to Scan with MSE
. But it still won't change. I've also tried de-registering the DLL and then registering it again. No luck!
Any ideas? Or am I doing something wrong?
