If you want to remove an entry on a context menu that appears on just one file type or a few different file types, this section will show you how to easily remove it by using the context editor in Folder Options.
1. Open up My Computer by clicking the icon on the desktop or by clicking the Start Menu.
2. Once My Computer appears on the screen, click the Tools menu and select Folder Options and click the File Types tab.
3. Scroll through the list of file types and select the extension that you would like to modify.
4. Click the Advanced button to bring up the Edit File Type window, where you will see a list of all of the different entries that will show up in the context menu.
5. Select the item that you want to remove and click Remove.
6. Click OK and you are finished.
If you ever want to revert to your original context menus, you can just restore your computer to an earlier checkpoint. Or, if you didn't create a system restore checkpoint, you can just reinstall the app and that should take care of it.
