    I'm having the same problem. I noticed that this issue doesn't occur with folders, but it appears when I right-click on a file.

    Nilesoft Shell 1.9.18, Windows 11 23H2
    Having the issue with disappearing SendTo menu items when NSShell active, I borrowed some code from
    [RubicBG]
    [https://github.com//issues/364#issuecomment-1900965862]
    and wrote my version of a SendTo replacement (without copy to a folder target of an .lnk file), for which I allow myself to advertise :

    This should be fixed in Nilesoft Shell Pro, a community fork of Nilesoft Shell that I maintain (not an official Nilesoft build). Windows fills the Send to and New submenus after the menu opens, and Shell now reads them again once they are filled. The fix is based on #846.

    If you want to try it: https://github.com/Abdullah-Masood-05/Shell/releases/latest. Uninstall the original Nilesoft Shell first, since the two don't replace each other. I could only test it on my own machines, so I'd like to hear whether it works for you.

    I tested your project and you solved it in the most elegant class-native way. This is exactly what I want. This is a major project. May I ask if you have considered adapting to other languages? For instance, in Chinese, the complex software interfaces make me unsure of what I can do.

    @Abdullah-Masood-05

    Thank you, I'm glad it works for you.

    The context menu itself is already in Chinese: Shell picks zh-CN or zh-TW from your Windows display language, and since 2.0.5-beta.1 Hong Kong and Macau get Traditional Chinese. If a menu item is still in English, tell me which one.

    The Nilesoft Shell Pro app is English only for now. I'm adding Simplified and Traditional Chinese to it next, and it will follow the Windows display language the same way. Would you be willing to read through the Chinese text when it's ready? A native speaker will catch things I can't.

    @Abdullah-Masood-05

    @zhonglixun The app is now in Chinese, in 2.0.6-beta.1: https://github.com/Abdullah-Masood-05/Shell/releases/tag/v2.0.6-beta.1

    It follows your Windows display language, and you can also pick 简体中文 or 繁體中文 yourself under Preferences > Language. The change applies right away.

    I'm not a native speaker, so if any wording reads oddly or a term isn't what you'd expect from Windows, please tell me, either here or in our Discussions. A few I was less sure about: 菜单构建器 for Menu Builder, 高亮 for highlight, and in Traditional Chinese 喜好設定 for Preferences.

    I'd be more than happy to help you review it. I'm helping you check this. It will take some time

    Regarding the translations you were unsure about:

    • Menu Builder: You translated this as “菜单构建器”. While the functionality is understandable, to native speakers it sounds a bit overly literal and technical. Having looked at the actual feature, a more natural and colloquial translation would simply be “自定义菜单” (Custom Menu / Customize Menu).
    • highlight: Translating this as “高亮” is completely correct.
    • Preferences: Translating this as “喜好設定” poses no comprehension issues, but in Simplified Chinese, it is standardly referred to as “偏好设置”. Also, “喜好設定” is in Traditional Chinese characters, so I’m not entirely sure whether it fully aligns with Traditional Chinese user habits.
      One thing worth noting is that Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese differ quite a bit in terminology and localization conventions. While both are mutually intelligible on a literal level, their phrasing habits are very different. Therefore, I can only assist you with the Simplified Chinese localization.

    @Abdullah-Masood-05

    @zhonglixun Thank you, that's very helpful, and Simplified Chinese alone is exactly what I need from you.

    I've changed both: Menu Builder is now 自定义菜单, and Preferences is 偏好设置. They'll be in the next beta. I'll find someone from Taiwan or Hong Kong for Traditional Chinese.

    Since this issue is on the original project, I opened a thread on ours for the rest of the review: Abdullah-Masood-05#2. A list of corrections there is perfect, or you can edit the .po file linked there and open a pull request if you prefer. Take your time.
