Describe the solution you'd like
Is it possible to show launch entries on the menu poped up after right-clicking the WezTerm icon on the taskbar? Just like what Windows Terminal does.

I'd like that feature as well, but don't forget you can see the og launch menu in wezterm by right clicking on the + icon next to the open tab.

This is either a duplicate of or strongly related to:

the level of effort for this on Windows 11 is ridiculously high and I have no plans to tackle this.
A PR would be welcomed.

To have these in you explorer follow the below steps:

  1. Install nilsoft shell
  2. Run it as administrator
  3. Click Register
  4. Shift + Right click in taskbar
  5. shell > config
  6. Before the lastline (i.e. import/taskbar) insert the below code snippet

item(title="nvim" tip=tip_run_admin admin=has_admin cmd='wezterm.exe' args='start --cwd "@sel.dir" nvim')

item(title="wezterm" tip=tip_run_admin admin=has_admin cmd='wezterm.exe' args='start --cwd "@sel.dir"')

  1. Save the file
  2. Shift + Right click taskbar
  3. shell > manager
  4. Click Restart Explorer

If you need logo like mine and the below logos in "~ \documents\logo'
nvim
wezterm

Change the code to

item(title="nvim" tip=tip_run_admin admin=has_admin image="C:\\Users\\{Username}\\Documents\\logo\\nvim.png" cmd='wezterm.exe' args='start --cwd "@sel.dir" nvim')

item(title="wezterm" tip=tip_run_admin admin=has_admin image="C:\\Users\\{Username}\\Documents\\logo\\wezterm.png" cmd='wezterm.exe' args='start --cwd "@sel.dir"')
