sorry for the title but I didn't know how to express it in a few words. The idea is this. When you click with the left mouse button in the top left corner of any window program of Windows, it is opened a small menu, containing some options like: "Restore", "Minimize", "Close" etc. I tried to search google about this but I do not know even how this menu is called. What I need is the name of this menu, and also a way to customize it. I would like to add another option in that menu, if it is possible.

1Right-clicking titlebar opens the same menu. How do you want to customize it? Add something to it for all programs? Or in your program?– gronostajCommented Nov 19, 2013 at 9:05

To all programs, this is my idea, is that possible?– Noah MartinCommented Nov 19, 2013 at 9:17

What do you want to add? And do you have any programming experience?– gronostajCommented Nov 19, 2013 at 9:45

Yes, I have a good java background and somewhat even in C#. I just want to add a link to a program, for example "Open Notepad++".– Noah MartinCommented Nov 19, 2013 at 10:01

It is called the system menu
. As far as I know, you can only add items to this menu if you write the application.

Thanks for answering, but what do you mean by "if you write the application"? I want to add an option there for all applications, not just for one. Commented Nov 19, 2013 at 9:18

You can also inject items from DLLs, many "minimize to tray" programs do it. Commented Nov 19, 2013 at 9:44

Can you help me with a tutorial about this? Or can you suggest me a page to look for? Commented Nov 19, 2013 at 10:04
