To add 'Edit with Vim' to the Windows File Explorer context menu:
- Save this file as edit-with-vim.reg,
- Make sure the paths are right for your machine
- Change each fowardslash to backslash with the vim command :%s,/,\\,g
- Click on it in Explorer or import this file in regedit.exe.
- The double quotes are needed for filenames with spaces.
- The '*' means 'for all files'.

Why don't you use GvimExt?
i thought this facility is already available if you install gvim... am i wrong?
This will allow Window's Explorer to launch Vim on directories also (the paths have double backslashes).
