Add a Program to the Send To Menu

If you need to use Windows and would like to add some more user-friendliness to the super user-friendly MS GUI, like, adding some other program to the Send To menu, here it is what you need to do:
  1. Open Windows explorer and type: shell:sendto in the text field.
  2. Create a link, ehm shortcut for the program you plan to add in some place (directory, desktop).
  3. Cut and paste it into the Windows explorer directory.
  4. You're done! 
Updated for Windows 10 in May 2016.

Specified VM install not found: type Standard VM ...

Specified VM install not found: type Standard VM, name jdk1.7.0_45

You installed a new JDK, configured Eclipse to recognize it but the old one still pops up when you compile or do something else.
Try removing the following file: \.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.debug.core\.launches\projectname build.xml.launch
