Instead of having to use the keyboard combo of the Windows key and the Tab key, why not add the cool Flip 3D window switcher to your context (right-click) menu? Now you can easily access it using only your mouse. Here's how.

1. Open Notepad.

2. Copy and paste the following into the new text document:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Window Switcher]
@="{3080F90E-D7AD-11D9-BD98-0000947B0257}"



3. Save the document as Flip3D_context_menu.reg.

4. Merge the new file into the registry by right-clicking it, selecting Open With, and finally clicking Registry Editor.

5. Continue through the UAC prompt and confirm that you wish to perform the action.


Now when you right-click your desktop, you will have the Window Switcher option to bring up Flip 3D.
