2) Extract the DLL file and copy and paste it to "C:\Windows\System32".
3)Copy and paste the quoted text in notepad.

No. Tried it. It is giving me the error:

Quote:
Cannot import <filename>. This specified file is not a registry script. You can only import binary registry files from within the registry editor.
But I suppose that this method will not work for laptop CD/DVD ROMs because they have manual operation only.

This really works. Repo [ASAP]. Is there any way to move the Insert button near Eject button. Or change the Eject button to Insert if the CD tray is already open ?

BTW, There is a problem in the registry entry provided here. The *third line will create a new Key (registry folder) called ContextMenuHandler s instead of merging with ContextMenuHandlers Key.

*Original Code

Code:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shellex\ContextMenuHandler s\{02a07e80-efa2-11d4-8306-a7ebd4c50c7c}]
@="{02a07e80-efa2-11d4-8306-a7ebd4c50c7c}"
Fixed Code

Code:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\{02a07e80-efa2-11d4-8306-a7ebd4c50c7c}]
@="{02a07e80-efa2-11d4-8306-a7ebd4c50c7c}"

I also got the 404 file not found error message. So I searched for the cdeject.dll file and found another one. Later I tried to download the first file with a proxy and it worked.

Default Right-Click Context Menu for Close CD Tray
Thank you for your tutorial, but I would like to know if you know of another way of adding this context menu WITHOUT having to download anything from the internet.

If you didn't know, you can "Close" the CD/DVD drive tray by opening Computer Management > Removable Storage > Libraries > <right-click> on Media Device* > Eject (is the top option).

*Where Media Device is your CD or DVD Drive

This will Eject the Media Device Tray. Right-click again on the Media Device and "Eject" is now replaced with "Inject" (Closes the Tray).

By clicking Inject, the Media Inject Wizard is launched in a new window. Click Next and Next again. The Media Device Tray will then close!

Obviously this involves a lot of key strokes, but it does demonstrate that with the correct and known commands + registry entries this can be turned into a right-click context menu for Inject.

Do you know how I can get this to work?
