[FIXED] How to make my browser (such as Firefox) open a custom File Manager?

Issue

My system is Windows 11 build 22621. Now I use Tablacus Explorer to manage my files instead of Explorer.exe, however, many apps (such as Firefox or Control Panel) will still use Explorer.exe when I try to open directory or other something in those apps，even though I used some Tablacus's plugins such as Shell Execute Hook. Are there better methods to let other apps to auto open Tablacus as more as possible？

Solution

Add "Open Instead" and "System Tray" plugin to solve the problem.

[FIXED] How can I read REG_NONE value in C++?

Issue

I want to read REG_NONE value from regedit with C++.

Here are my codes:

#include <iostream>
#include <windows.h>
using namespace std;

//--- Değişkenler ---//
//DWORD
DWORD dw_Rn_Boyut = MAX_PATH;
DWORD dw_Rn_Deger;
DWORD dw_Rn_DegerTipi = REG_NONE;

//HKEY
HKEY hkey_Rn;

//LONG
LONG long_Rn_Sonuc;

int main()
{
    long_Rn_Sonuc = RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_CURRENT_USER, "Software\\DownloadManager\\FoldersTree\\Compressed", 0, KEY_READ | KEY_WOW64_64KEY, &hkey_Rn);

    if(long_Rn_Sonuc == ERROR_SUCCESS)
    {
        long_Rn_Sonuc = RegQueryValueEx(hkey_Rn, "pathW", 0, &dw_Rn_DegerTipi, (LPBYTE)&dw_Rn_Deger, &dw_Rn_Boyut);

        if(long_Rn_Sonuc == ERROR_SUCCESS)
        {
            cout << dw_Rn_Deger;
        }
    }

    getchar();

    return 0;
}

My app shows 3801156 as result. This value is decimal version of that reg value. It equals to 3A 00 44

Here is the reg value which I want to read:

But why does not my app read other hex values?

How can I fix my problem?

Solution

There is no such thing as a REG_NONE value. On success, your dw_Rn_DegerTipi variable will be updated with the actual value type (in this case, REG_BINARY), and your dw_Rn_Boyut variable will be updated with the number of actual bytes read.

Your problem is that you are using the wrong data type for your dw_Rn_Dege variable. The data in question is not a DWORD value, it is a WCHAR character string, so you need a WCHAR character buffer to receive it. You are telling RegQueryValueEx() that you allocated a buffer to hold MAX_PATH bytes, but you really didn't. So you have a buffer overflow error in your code when RegQueryValueEx() tries to write more than 4 bytes to the memory address of dw_Rn_Deger.

Try this instead:

#include <iostream>
#include <windows.h>
using namespace std;

//--- Değişkenler ---//
WCHAR sz_Rn_Deger[MAX_PATH+1] = {};
DWORD dw_Rn_Boyut = MAX_PATH * sizeof(WCHAR);

//HKEY
HKEY hkey_Rn;

//LONG
LONG long_Rn_Sonuc;

int main()
{
    long_Rn_Sonuc = RegOpenKeyExW(HKEY_CURRENT_USER, L"Software\\DownloadManager\\FoldersTree\\Compressed", 0, KEY_QUERY_VALUE | KEY_WOW64_64KEY, &hkey_Rn);

    if (long_Rn_Sonuc == ERROR_SUCCESS)
    {
        long_Rn_Sonuc = RegQueryValueExW(hkey_Rn, L"pathW", NULL, NULL, reinterpret_cast<LPBYTE>(&sz_Rn_Deger), &dw_Rn_Boyut);

        if (long_Rn_Sonuc == ERROR_SUCCESS)
        {
            wcout << sz_Rn_Deger;
        }

        RegCloseKey(hkey_Rn);
    }

    getchar();

    return 0;
}
