remove shortcuts on right click

[Kristie]

With Win 98 Tweak UI I was able to remove the unwanted right click shortcuts, WinXP powertoys doesn't seem to have that option, how can I remove these shortcuts, the ricght click menu is getting way to big?

Open TweakUI | Templates | Uncheck what you don't want.

Kristie,

Not sure which context menu [particular file type, drive or folder?] you =
are referring to:

For Folders/Drives, start Registry Editor and check here:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\ContextMenuHandlers
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\ContextMenuHandl ers
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shellex\ContextMenuHan dlers
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\ContextMenuHandlers
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shellex\ContextMenuHandle rs
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell\ContextMenuHandlers
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shellex\ContextMenuHandler s

{ First, backup the registry before deleting any key. See: =
http://www.mvps.org/sramesh2k/registry.htm }

(or)
Download Shell Expert 1.10: Freeware, which does the same job

If you're talking about the Shellnew entries, follow Wesley's advice.

registry if I don't have to.
Thanks again,
