unlisting item listed in right click list Windows Explorer

I installed the "print directory" feature described in
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;321379

It works just fine, but it interfers with the use of short cuts, and I'm
unsure of how to implement the work around given by Microsoft.

I need help reversing one of the features. The installed procedure
provides for modifying the menu that comes up when you right click on a
directory icon.

The procedure called for:
opening the Folder Options tool in Control Panel
selecting the File Types Tab
In File Types column, to select item labeled "File Folder"
The to click on Advance Button, click on New, and
specify a name for the action associated with the new batch file.

I was able to add the link as suggested. MY QUESTION, HOW DO I DELETE
THE NAME FROM THE LIST NOW THAT THE BATCH FILE NO LONGER EXISTS?

I found a solution. After deleting the .bat file to which the item in
list linked, I ran Norton System Works. It identified it as a
discontinuous link, and deleted it.

I would still like to know how to do it directly.
