true to throw error; otherwise false.

Remarks
This method behavior depends on many contextual parameters such as the process bitness (32 or 64 bit), the type of process (Console vs Windows), or the the current thread's COM apartment state (STA vs MTA, etc.). It also depends on how dynamic context menu handlers choose to add or not menu items.
