Debugging of Shell extensions is a simple process. Its general principes are described in the article "Debugging Shell Extensions Using Delphi" on our website. But some things still made developers "unhappy". They are:
* DLL's are locked by applications (for caching purposes) and you are unable to recompile your project
* You need to use Registry Editor to modify hidden Windows Shell setting
* Sometimes you don't have access to some Explorer features while debugging your Shell Extension
Shell Reset Tool was developed to solve these problems. It is useful to any Shell Extension developer, not depending on what he used to develop and debug shell extensions (Borland Delphi, Microsoft Visual Studio or any other environment).
Shell Reset features:
* Restart and shutdown Windows Explorer
* Control Windows Explorer debugging settings
* Manage tasks without Explorer Task Bar
* More useful features will be available soon. Shell Reset is licensed as shareware, the cost of the registered verison is $15 and full size of the download is 0.33 MB. You may download a free version of Shell Reset by following download link at Free Download section of this page.
