You will probably have to make a Shell Context Menu extension (a DLL
implementing the IContextMenu interface) and register the DLL to handle the
.lnk file extension.  When the user right-clicks on any shortcut, your
extension will be invoked specifying the shortcut's filename.  Then you can
have the extension utilize the IShellLink interface to extract information
from the shortcut and see if it points to a file with your custom file
extension.  If so, then you can choose whether or not to add your new menu
item for editing the shortcut.  If you do, then your extension will still
have the shortcut filename available when the menu item is clicked on.
