Single selected .exe launches the file instead of the configured command (Win 10 19045)Windows 10 version 19045.6466.

Using ExecuteCommand400C.exe with:ah # powershell.exe -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File "C:\Create_Folder_And_Move\Create_Folder_using_filename2.ps1" #fVerb is under HKCU\Software\Classes*\shell\Create Folder and Move (using Filename) NEW2\command with
DelegateExecute = {FFA07888-75BD-471A-B325-59274E73400C}.

What Works

Dummy file fakeexe.exe (renamed text file)
Real .exe selected together with another file (e.g. test.txt) — script runs and creates the folder from the other filename

What Fails

Right-click only a real PE such as AutoMouseCursorHider.exe
Windows shows “The publisher could not be verified” and the exe starts
Create_Folder_using_filename2.ps1 does not run

Calling powershell.exe -File ... "%1" directly is not a usable workaround here (single-instance / multi-select reasons).

The helper is required.
Is a lone exefile expected to hit IExecuteCommand from a *\shell verb, or must the verb also be registered under exefile / SystemFileAssociations without duplicating the menu item?

or some other bug happening? cheers Paul

Update. I found a DLL SHell called NileSoft that can pass all args to a ps1 script and
dont get caught on the exe filename above.. bit slower but works fine. But if find
a fix I will consider switching back. Paul

reproduced. thank you for reporting.
This seems to be an inherent problem for IExecuteCommand/IDropTarget/IExplorerCommand.
IContextMenu (which NileSoft Shell seems to use) doesn't have this limitation.

I have created a tool using IContextMenu.

Here I shared my tool and code with AIs help, if want to test it. As Im happy with the Nilesoft shell as
it can sort right click menus and other stuff. The tool select files and make folder and move
something that should of been part of win 10/11 anyhow
