Add /n switch to MathcadPrime.exe to allow new documents to be created from template (MCTX)

Would like to add shell command to Windows to allow double-clicking an MCTX (Mathcad template) in File Explorer to start a new document, similar to the way Excel or Word function when you double-click a XLTX or DOTX file.

 

Excel.exe has a /n parameter to accomodate this, and the shell command is found in the registry. Would like to be able to do the same for MathcadPrime.mctx as shown below.
