How to add a 'Download subtitles' entry in Windows context menu

Clone this repo, open the scripts directory, and run the script called Add to context menu.reg.

Or if you want to do this manually:

• open regedit.exe
• expand HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/SystemFileAssociations
• for each video file extension (mkv, avi, mp4, etc.), you need to add a key, as follows:
  • go to .mkv
  • right click > New > Key, call it shell
  • right-click on shell > New > Key, call it Download subtitles (that's the label in the context menu)
  • right-click on Download subtitles > New > Key, call it command
  • double click on default value and in its data, write: cmd.exe /c subz-hero "%L"
