Edit right-click context menus in Windows 7

I'm looking for a way to edit the right-click context menus in Windows 7. I would prefer to use a graphical editor, as diving into the Windows registry is rather messy, and inconvenient.

If such software doesn't exist, please tell me - then I can start my long visit to the registry.

Tried the first two programs, and the (sort of) accomplished what I needed, thanks. – wen – 2010-11-13T14:07:43.327

9WARNING: I am surprised anyone would recommend "right click enhancer," as mehper did above. It has the babylon browser hijacker hidden in the code! Fortunately my FF 'browser hijack" detection addon stopped it! – None – 2012-07-18T13:21:41.830

2Right Click Enhancer installer version contains babylon browser toolbar but portable version is free of ads. There is also a paid version which didn't contain ads in installer and portable version. – Ravi Patel – 2013-04-09T04:45:16.053

Personally I don't have any experience of such software, but I know there are few. I always use registry directly and prefer to do these kinds of things myself. You could try this one: Context Menu Editor for Windows 7 & Vista


And here's good guide to do this from registry (if you end up doing it):

NOTE: Remember to take backup from registry before editing the values.

This program is only for the context menu on windows folder background when pressing shift and right clicking. – Martin Braun – 2014-11-23T21:08:35.590
