Since it's a slow news day and I finally found the culprit for what breaks the Device Manager link in "Control Panel\System and Maintenance\System" under Tasks for Vista 32 bit...
It appears that if you install JujuEdit 1.44 with Context Menu option selected in install, the Device Manager link stops working. What makes this slightly more weird is that just removing the "openas" verb from the ShellExecute called by that link makes it work again for whatever reason. Given that in Vista 64 bit the Context Menu option doesn't even appear but the DM link keeps working I'd say it's time we got 1.45 of this fine software.
Still it's pretty weird that it's the only link of the four that breaks...
Workarounds:
a) Don't install the context menu
b) delete this key:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\ContextMenuExt]
@="{2C5D573F-C018-45BC-A78F-9BE0A624647B}"
To get almost equivalent functionality back add this. Assuming the default path here:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\JujuEdit\command]
@="\"C:\Program Files\Jujusoft\JujuEdit\jujuedit.exe\" \"%1\""
