Edit Right Click Menu Items On XP

edit right click menu items
You can easily remove those unwanted right click menu items, if you know the registry values to edit. And it's not at all difficult once you know the keys responsible for the additions.

For Files, the secret lies in the "context menu handlers" under the shellex subkey for "All Files" which, in the registry, is nothing but an asterisk - like a dos wildcard, which means the values entered apply to all files. It is at the very top of the Root key, right here:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers

Click the the + sign next to the ContextMenuHandlers key, to expand it.
Now you will see some of the programs that have added items to your right-click menu. Simply delete the program keys you don't want.
Yup! It's that simple. If deleting makes you uneasy, just export the key before deleting it. Or, instead of deleting the values, disable them. Simply double click the default value for the program on the right hand pane and rename the clsid value by placing a period or dash in front of it.


ie; - {b5eedee0-c06e-11cf-8c56-444553540000}


Then exit the registry, refresh, and right click a file to see if the item was removed from the menu.
Some programs - like WinZip or WinRar - will add several items to your right click menu but all of them will be removed by deleting or disabling their one context menu handler.

Note that the above key only applies to the right click menu of files.
To remove entries from the right click context menu of folders, you need to navigate to the Folder and Drive keys:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers


All you have to do is follow the same procedure as for Files - either disable or delete items you wish to remove.


Adding Items


Adding Items to the right click menu of Files and Folders is also fairly simple using the Registry. It just involves the creation of a few new keys for each item you wish to add. You edit the same keys used for removing items. Let's use Notepad as an example of an item you'd like to add to the right click menu of all your files or folders.

For folders, go to this key:


HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder


Click the + sign next to Folder and expand it so that the Shell key is visible. Right click the Shell key and choose New>Key and name the key Notepad or whatever else you'd prefer (whatever the key is named is what will appear in the right-click menu). Now right click the new key you made and create another key named Command. Then, in the right hand pane, double click "Default" and enter Notepad.exe as the value.
Exit the registry, refresh, and right click any folder. Notepad should now be on the context menu.


For files, go here again:


HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*


Expand the * key and see if a Shell key exists. If it does exist, follow the same procedure as for folders. If it does not exist, you'll have to create a new Shell first. Just right click the * key and choose New>Key and name it Shell. Then right click the Shell key and continue on the same way you did for adding items to the right click menu of folders.


Once done, Notepad should appear as an option in the right click menu of all your files.

    Hide Files Inside A JPEG Image File


    1. Gather the file you wish to bind, and the image file, and place them in a folder. For the sake of this demonstration,I will be using C:\New Folder
    *The image will hereby be referred to in all examples as tricks.jpg
    *The file will hereby be referred to in all examples as New Text Document.txt

    2. Add the file/files you will be injecting into the image into a WinRar .rar or .zip. From here on this will be referred to as (secret.rar)

    3. Open command prompt by going to Start > Run > cmd

    4. In Command Prompt, navigate to the folder where your two files are by typingcd location [ex: cd C:\New Folder]
    5. Type [copy /b tricks.jpg + secret.rar tricks.jpg] (remove the brackets)Congrats, as far as anyone viewing is concerned, this file looks like a JPEG, acts like a JPEG, and is a JPEG, yet it now contains your file.

    In order to view/extract your file, there are two options that you can take

    a) Change the file extension from tricks.jpg to tricks.rar, then open and your file is there.

    b) Leave the file extension as is, right click, open with WinRar and your file is there
