Every drive is listed in sendto

C

Carl F

In Windows Vista Ultimate SP1, every system drive (partition) is listed
in my SendTo menu even though the
C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo
folder only contains the following (defaults):
Compressed (zipped) folder
Desktop (create shortcut)
Fax Recipient
Mail Recipient

I my case there are 14 drives including A;, C:, D:, etc.
The SendTo menu is too busy.
Is there any way to get rid of the list of drives in SendTo?

This registry fix worked the first time.
You must restart windows to get the new registry value to work.
Thank you for your quick accurate response
