Shell Launcher - The shell to use if your computer is running slow - hacxx - 10-02-2017

Sometimes when starting Windows the computer becomes real slow and explorer.exe hangs, so, for that i have came up with this small utility that has the purpose of replacing the inicialization of the machine. Shell Launcher has only one purpose and that is give the option to the user of choosing between explorer.exe or cmd.exe to start.

Info:
To fully use this utility you will have to manualy change the registry entry for explorer.exe. Also In order for this utility to work the archive must be extracted to a folder and that folder must contain both shortcuts (*.lnk)

Not sure what language you coded this in, anyway, as far as I know there should be a way to launch the programs directly instead of including the .lnk in the packet.

Now the program assumes my drive is C: (which is also the case), but this isn't always the case.

It would be better to determine the drive programmatically and launch it from there. Also I'm not sure what you mean with manually changing the registry. I highly recommend building this into your program as well, since not everyone is comfortable with messing in the registry. If you need any help on how to do this in C# or someting I can probably help you out.
