Edit File Explorer Right Click Options

Post by hlewton »

Is there a way to remove some of the options that appear in the Right Click context menu of File Explorer in Windows 11? It is the same type of Right Click menu that appeared in Win 7, not the new one in Windows 11. There are so many options of things I have never used or will use in the future. Even if it involves a Registry edit, I'd like to remove about half of what is appearing.

Thanks
Regards,

The context menus for files change with the file type. I have not experimented with any of the context menu editors. I suggest you search for "context menu editor" and try one that says it is compatible with Windows 11. Be sure you make a backup before attempting this sort of change.

OK, thank you.
