Right Click Madness
Hey guys. I'm sure you've noticed that when you right click a file of any type (if you're on windows), you are greeted with a list of possible tasks. Tasks like.. Enqueue in Winamp, Add to Zip, Send to -> Desktop as Shortcut.
I use those things all the time. Love 'em. However, I've noticed that about fifty thousand or so minute applications are under the impression that I use them all the time and would like nothing better than an array of 4-5 tasks that it can perform. Normally I can overlook this... but when I right click an mp3 I'm now bombarded with about 30 choices. Anyway, there's gotta be a way to edit this list to get rid of all the shit I never use that gets in my way. With the registry or otherwise. Any ideas?

To add custom destinations to your Send To folder, you need to actually go to the folder you want to be available in the Send To menu, create a shortcut of it, and send the shortcut to your Send To folder. Then rename the folder so it doesn't say "shortcut to.....etc"

Just to note, the Send To folder is a hidden folder so you will have to go into you're folder options and show hidden items. Here's how:
Open any folder Click on Tools>Folder Options Select the View tab Under the Hidden Files and Folders list, click the radio button that says Show Hidden Files and Folders. That's it. Good luck

The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose vis-à-vis an introduction, and so it is my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V." - V |
