The context menu or right click option becomes too large after installation of large number of apps. Some apps shortcuts are useful and others are useless .We can put only those items in right click menu which we use frequently.However there is no direct method to remove an item from the right click menu and you have make changes in the registry.
Caution: Backup registry before editing.
1. Open Run from the start menu and enter regedit in it.
2. In Registry Settings window, Navigate to
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shellexe\ContextMenuHandlers
- 3. Now from the list, Right Click on the item which you want to remove from your Context menu.
- Select delete from the menu.
- Refresh your Desktop and Right Click on any icon and you will be glad to see that unwanted item is removed from context menu.
- Along with removing items from the Context Menu you also add System files in it.
