Removing old right-click entries in Explorer

[KiwiBrian]

After replacing my HTML Validator with a new version, I still have two
invalid entries in my Explorer right-click menu.
How do I either remove them, or better still, change them to point to my new
program?
I have perused the registry but found zillions of references to validator,
but none that seemed to point to the old program, so I tiptoed carefully out
of there....

Thanks for any help

To remove the menu items: Open the Registry Editor and use Edit> Find to
locate the exact phrase as it appears in the right click menu. Delete any
references found and use "Find Next" to repeat the search through the
entire registry.
