WeiDU Context Menu for Windows
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Author:   Argent77
Version:  1.0


Overview
~~~~~~~~

This packages adds a "Install with WeiDU" context menu entry for mod folders and tp2 script files to
the Windows Explorer and other third party file managers.

It can be used to install mods without having to deal with individual setup executables and their
(sometimes undesired) auto-update mechanism.


Install the context menu entry
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. Download the WeiDU package for Windows: https://github.com/WeiDUorg/weidu/releases?q=prerelease%3Afalse
   Choose the WeiDU version you want to install (e.g. v251 or v249):

2. Unpack the WeiDU package in a location of your choice (e.g. C:\Tools).
   Note: It is not recommended to install in "C:\Program Files" or "C:\Program Files (x86)", because
         these folders are specially protected by Windows and require elevated access privileges.

The following instructions assume that the WeiDU binaries now exist in "C:\Tools\WeiDU-Windows" and
contains "weinstall.exe", "weidu.exe", as well as a bunch of other files. Adjust the path if needed.

3. Copy the following files from the "Windows" folder of this package to "C:\Tools\WeiDU-Windows":
   - register_weinstall-dir.cmd
   - register_weinstall-dir_tp2.cmd
   - unregister_weinstall.cmd
   - weinstall_wrapper.cmd

4. Navigate to "C:\Tools\WeiDU-Windows" and execute one of the "register_weinstall" scripts:
   - register_weinstall-dir.cmd: Installs only a context menu entry for mod folders.
   - register_weinstall-dir_tp2.cmd:  Installs a context menu entry for mod folder and a file association
                                      with .tp2 scripts.
                                      Don't choose this script if tp2 files have already been associated
                                      with another application.

You can now right-click on a mod folder in the game directory and select the menu option "Install with WeiDU"
to run the interactive mod installer for the selected mod.
You might have to first click on the "Show more options" entry to list all available context menu entries.


Remove the context menu entry
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Execute "unregister_weinstall.cmd" to remove the .tp2 file association and context menu entry for mod folders.

Do this before you move or delete the WeiDU directory.
