Modify context menu when right-click on a file or folder

Post by huik »

Hello and happy new year :party:
Is it possible to delete or add entries to the context menu when I right-click on a file or folder?
Thanks for your help

Delete which or add what entries _exactly_?

A few (the XY internal one) entries can be added / removed here:
Configuration | General | Menus, Mouse, Usability | Context Menus | File List...

All other: The registry (or the application itself if it allows to register / unregister their extensions) is your friend...

I won't recommend to do registry manipulation by yourself if you don't know what you're doing.

Try to use this instead: https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/shell_menu_view.html

It allows you to dis-/enable context menu items
