Hi all,

I am currently developing a shell extension, which introduces some new
columns for Windows Explorer's detail view.

Everything works fine, but how can I programmatically (via registry
settings or the like) activate these columns, or determine whether the
columns are visable due to the user's settings? Currently, the user has
to switch on the columns of my Extension manually, which I want to make
a little bit more user-friendly.

Any help is appreciated,
Ron

You may want to post this question to
microsoft.public.platformsdk.shell instead. If this is possible, the
solution is most likely the same regardless of the implementation
language, so the fact that you're using .NET interop is irrelevant.
