Write batch scripts for installation and uninstallation

Thanks for your extension, but not every user have enough knowledge to register or unregister this extension into system. If you write batch files (.bat or .cmd) for this extension, it’s possible to automatically do so without requiring additional technique, and you can make the script be able to directly ask privilege from User Account Control (UAC).

I have a question, and a sugestion for Resource Hacker

Hi @AngusJohnson

I have found that using your dll file my svg images load very fast. I used to use Microsoft PowerToys to view my svg files, but it is very slow loading svg's, so I use SvgShellExtensions and I like it.

My question is: is there any way to remove the browser icon that appears in the bottom right corner of the svg file?

I also like your Resource Hacker software, I use it often. Since the last version 5.1.8, Resource Hacker has not received updates in over a year and a half. I would like to see RH with a new look, such as a dark theme and also icons with material or fluent design. What do you think about that?
