How to control the right-click menu split line in explorer.exe

I want to add a split line like this in explorer.exe by editing the register:

just my desktop menu

explorer.exe! The Microsoft thing! Not a third-party thing!

I want to edit the register to do this, so it's not a programming question.

@WQR1994 I don't believe you can add separation lines, as I believe they're added by DLL's, however you can specify a new string value Position with its value being top, middle, or bottom under the appropriate key within the HKCR hive ( HKCR\*\shell, HKCR\Directory, etc.). For example, this adds a context menu option under HKCR\Directory

I find a way in sub-menu: create shell commands at HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell. Then at HKCR<filetype>\shell<name>, add a string value named "SubCommands" valued "<a command name add before>;|;<another command name add before>;", e.g. "windows.copy;|;windows.cut;" – WQR1994 – 2019-10-11T03:48:47.977
