IIRC, there is a way of removing some of the right click context menu with
the help of TweakUI.
I'm darned if I can find it though!
Can somebody point me in the righ direction please!
TIA

Hi,

TweakUI offers a way to remove items from the "New" menu which is under
Templates.

As for the right click menu:

It depends on where in the right click menu.

Go to Start/Run/Regedit and navigate to:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\OpenWithList
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers

ContextEdit lets you control which items appear on your context menu
(right-click) in Windows Explorer.

Oops!
I *did* mean the *New* Menu actually, but this is a _more than useful* reply
and will be copied to my keep folder.

(One of the problems with dodgy eyes is that it can get very hard to find
things, even when I'm sure that I know where they are!)

Kelly,

I was browsing the Newsgroup and found this query which interests me. I have
a lot of stuff in my right-click and wonder how to modify it.

Line 23 of http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm reads:
23. Run Startup Programs from the CMD Prompt Allow or Disable CD Burn
Options

This doesn't seem appropriate to the problem

Is there another place I should look?

Trevor L.

My bad. Has been since removed and replaced with

The one I had listed on line 23 required a registration.
