get rid of right click options

[unwashed potato!]

trying to remove the stuff from when i right click something but struggling to find a way to do this. i was hoping that somewhere on windows it would be all listed like with msconfig showing things that run on start up but google not showing me any good results.

i know some programs allow me to remove them from the programs optins but again not all are giving me what i want, like windows media player and music files, copy to cd, add to playlist, queue-it-up etc.

so anyway can anyone help me with with geting rid of these options from when iright click?

thanks

Some of them are easier than others. The Open... Print... etc ones above the first separator are file type specific and can be changed from the View...File Types menu option in explorer. The rest are embedded in the registry somewhere, sometimes the app in question will let you configure them (WinRAR for example does) sometimes not.
