Go to:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell

Right-click shell → New → Key → name it whatever you want (e.g., Open with MyApp).

Inside that key, create another key named command.

Double-click the (Default) value in command, and set it to the full path of your program followed by %1.
Example:
"C:\Path\To\MyApp.exe" "%1"

Done. The program will now appear when you right-click any file.
