#488 Make context menu for multiple selected files appear in Everything

[Sebastian Schuberth]

I'd like to use Everyhting to quickly search for matching file names, and then use grepWin to search the contents of these files. Unfortunately, no grepWin entry shows up in the context menu when right-clicking on multiple selected files in Everything. As menu entries form other apps (like TortoiseSVn and WinRAR) do show up in there, I suppose it's an issue with grepWin, and not with Everything.

Interestingly, the grepWin entry does seem to appear if I select <= 15 files, but disappears for more selected files.

That's a limitation of the windows shell for context menu handlers.
See https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/cc144171(v=vs.85).aspx for details (look for "MultiSelectModel").
I'll use the MultiSelectModel "Player" to increase the limit.
