Don't mess around with the registry unless you know exactly what you are doing.

"ShellMenuView is a small utility that display the list of static menu items that appeared in the context menu when you right-click a file/folder on Windows Explorer, and allows you to easily disable unwanted menu items."
i want to delete them from the menu that comes up after right clicking on the Start button. but thanx anyways

781980 2009-06-13 09:13:00 You can do it manually - have a read of This article (windowsitpro.com)

WARNING: Make a restore point FIRST - back up the reg, its not a place you want to go playing about in unless you know what you are doing - altering the wrong thing can cause all sorts of problems with your Computer.
