I have a couple of programs that when I uninstalled them, they did not
remove themselves from the right click menu when a file is selected. Is
there a way to update this menu or remove these? Thanks.

Areas where right-click entries might be hiding in the registry. If you
are familiar with it, and know how to restore Windows in case of failure,
look at...

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