Tested under Windows 10 and 11:
1. Open the Registry (start - run - regedit)
2. Navigate to the following key:
Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\DesktopBackground\Shell
3. Create a new key under the Shell key above and name it whatever you want your desktop context menu entry to be called
I'm gonna go with: BurnAware
4. Under the newly created key, create another key and call it: command
Like: Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\DesktopBackground\Shell\BurnAware\command
5. Under the command key double click the (Default) String Value and add the path to your software
In my case it's gonna look like this:
(Default) REG_SZ "C:\Program Files (x86)\BurnAware Free\BurnAware.exe"
Without the proper icon, it would just be an entry with a name. If you want to set custom icon, see below:
1. Go up a key from the command key, into the key you created at point 3.
I'm here: Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\DesktopBackground\Shell\BurnAware
2. Create a New - String Value and name it: Icon
3. Double click Icon and add the path to your icon. Your icon can be an ICO file, an executable or a DLL library:
- if it's an ICO file you simply add the path to the .ico file
eg. D:\ICONS\BurnAware.ico
- if it's a DLL library, you are going to need to specify the icon index.
To find which it is, you must first create a random shortcut anywhere, right click it and go to Properties - Shortcut tab - Change icon, then browse to the dll file and selected, then count the icons first down then to the right until you find the one you want. It's index is the number minus one, because count starts from zero. This means if you counted and your desired icon was 21st, then the index is 20. Now you should add the path to your DLL file, followed by a comma and then the index
eg. D:\ICONS\IconLibrary.dll,11
- if it's an executable file, it's usually enough to add the path to the .exe file and get the desired icon
But an executable file might have a bunch of icons in it and maybe you want a different one. Do the same as above with the DLL file, except you check the .exe file for icons to get the icon index
The changes are instantaneous so you don't need to restart your computer.

In case of any errors with the path, you can always use environment variables.
So instead of C:\Program Files (x86)
you would add: %programfiles(x86)%
So the link would become something like: %programfiles(x86)%\BurnAware Free\BurnAware.exe
Other environment variables that can be used as a path:
%programfiles%
%windir%
%userprofile%
%appdata%
