How to Add, Remove, Edit Context Menu items in Windows 7/8/10 in Registry Editor

The 𝐑𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐂𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐤 𝐌𝐞𝐧𝐮 or the 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝘅𝘁 𝗠𝗲𝗻𝘂 is the menu, which appears when you right-click on the desktop or a file or folder in Windows. This menu gives you added functionality by offering you actions you can take with the item. Most programs like to stuff their commands in this menu. While they can be useful, the problem is that even when you uninstall the programs, they fail to remove the respective context menu item, making the menu slow and appear cluttered. Context Menu Editors can help you manage your right-click context menu items in Windows 10/8/7.

If you wish to reduce this clutter or remove items from this menu which are no longer useful, you can do so. Most programs will offer the explorer integration in their Settings, and if you look around, you may be able to find it and disable the File Explorer context-menu integration. If not, you will have to edit the registry or use a third-party freeware.
