Shell Reset (Trial download - $15 to buy)

Debugging of Shell extensions is a simple process, but some things still made developers "unhappy":

* DLL's are locked by applications (for caching purposes) and you are unable to recompile your project
* You need to use Registry Editor to modify hidden Windows Shell setting
* Sometimes you don't have access to some Explorer features while debugging your Shell Extension

ShellReset utility solves these problems.
