Right click menus

[Daniel]

When using xp professional and your right click on a file/folder and the menu pops up giving options such as using winzip, open, scan for viruses, ect depending on what programs you have installed is there a way to edit that list?

[JAX]

Yes: R-click Start and choose "Explore all Users". Expand the "Default User"
tree. There is a "Send to" folder. You can add to or delete what you want.

Daniel,

Edit the registry. If the context menu is displayed for all =
files/folders, open Regedit and goto:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers
Remove the menu items there. Backup the registry before modifying it.

To automate this, there is a program called ContextEdit [no longer a =
freeware, from www.pcmag.com]
