Not clear what exactly you are trying to achieve and what's the problem.

in progamme.cs
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Application.EnableVisualStyles();
Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);
Form1 p = new Form1();
// Application.Run(new Form1());
if (args.Length > 0)
{
p.pathkey = args[250];
}
Application.Run(p);
}

in form 1.cs

private string _pathkey;
public string pathkey
{
get { return _pathkey; }
set { _pathkey = value; }
}
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (this.pathkey != null)
{
textBox1.Text = pathkey;
}
}

Well the right clicked file pah would be passed through windows as a parameter.

This should help a bit:
