ContextEdit will allow you easily control which items appear on your context menu--the menu that appears when you right-click on an item in Windows Explorer.

The context menu often contains numerous rarely-used commands. These commands come from one of two places: shell commands stored within the system Registry, and context menu handlers.

The source of the menu item is transparent to the end-user, but still has an impact. Windows Explorer lets you add or remove simple shell commands, but gives you no control over context menu handlers.

ContextEdit lets you control both types of context menu items. It also allows you to disable context menu items without removing them entirely.

Another unique feature is the ability to add shell commands to all files regardless of type, or to all files without an associated program.

What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]

· Fixed a bug that caused the program to get stuck in an endless loop when reading the registry if it encountered a circular reference (specifically, an extension key whose default value contains the name of the same key). The program also presents a warning message when you select such a key in the master list. This rare situation doesn't cause any problems for Windows itself, so ContextEdit doesn't offer to repair it.
