When you right click a file, you get all kind of options
what to do with it...I have way too much there and don't
need all these options.
How can I delete/remove some of these options?
thanks

Download the TweakUI Powertoy for XP from the MS Site and you can uncheck the
ones you don't want to show without deleting them, in case you change your mind
later. (It's under My Computer>Templates)

Thanks Guys..
that's not quite what I was looking for, but good new
tips.
I've actually had the tweak utility installed for some
time already but never really used it much...so I found
some good tweaks there now.
Unfortunately there's no tweak for removing the
stuff...the Templates just offers to create new documents.

thanks
 
hi ramesh,
It's the jpeg file that gives me so many options.
I know, a lot of these options come from programs I
installed, but how do I remove them?
Like antiVirus, Powerdesk, Winzip, Compress to RAR...and
so on!
I might check these programs for some options..
 
Click Start | Run | Regedit
File > Export and backup the registry first:

Goto:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers
Add/Remove the options there.
