SendTo items not in SendTo folder : where ?

Hi,

I have SendTo items that appear in right-click -> SendTo, but which are not
located in the SendTo folder.

All of them are useless to me, so want to delete them ( entries for
multimedia cards on my internal USB-Multicards Reader)

Where should I look for them ?

TIA

you might have multiple SendTo folders in profiles. some may be hidden, and so not show
when you use Search

I have, but they're all empty except the one for my profile.
So some item must be elsewhere, perhaps in the registry.
Also all those unwanted items point to drives ( multimedia USB readers or
floppy and even burner !)

SendTo adds all removable drives attached to the machine to the SendTo menu.
You can disable this via the registry under:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer, create a
DWORD value named NoDrivesInSendToMenu = 1
