is there anyway i can get the windows xp style context menu on windows 10? Basically what i mean is renaming the list and probably redirect the personalize option to deskn.cpl

To redirect the personalization panel to deskn.cpl you need to follow these steps. 1.Create a .bat file to run deskn.cpl 2. run regedit and go to \HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\DesktopBackground\Shell\Personalize\command 3.Delete the key , DelegateExecute 4. Go to \HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\DesktopBackground\Shell\Personalize 5.Find the key , SettingsURI Then change its value to the location of the .bat file you created earlier. 6.Key, MUIVerb is responsible for the name so you can change it from Personalize to Properties. 7. The key named Icon is responsible for the icon next to the text, so if you want to delete it you have to change the key value to : %systemroot%\system32\shell32.dll,-50 ATTENTION ! You do at your own risk. You can just remove the Icon value |

You do at your own risk. Instead of making a batch file, you could just change the value of SettingsURI to "control.exe C:\(path to deskn)\deskn.cpl" |

Changing the settingsURI value doesn't seem to be necessary. You only have to delete the delegate key and then replace the (empty) standard value with the deskn.cpl path.

I followed it but clicking Properties does nothing. Did I do something wrong?
And also, a black square appears even I specify it to shell32,-50 for the icon.

Yes, you changed the wrong default value.
You ought to change the default value of the command key, not the personalize key.

As for black square, it disappeared by deleting Icon value as TechSalt said.
