Shell Extensions are in-process COM objects which extends the abilities of Windows operating system. Most shell extensions are automatically installed by the operating system, but there are also many other applications that install additional shell extension components. For example: If you install WinZip on your computer, you'll see a special WinZip menu when you right-click on a Zip file. This menu is created by adding a shell extension to the system. The ShellExView utility displays the details of shell extensions installed on your computer, and allows you to easily disable and enable each shell extension. ShellExView can be used for solving context-menu problems in Explorer environment.
This tiny tool doesn't need any installation. Same with just download the file from the link given below and then run it.
During the first run it will show all context menu. You can see the name, disabled or not, their type, description, versions, product name and the company to. It is also show the behavior of those menu like whether to activate on my computer/Dexter/Control Panel/my network/entire network and remote computer folders. Additionally it will show the filename which have created this menu, installation folder of the software/whether it's Microsoft product or not/file extension, file attributes, file size etc.
Using these simple and easy. You just need to select which menu you need to enable or disable and then just right click from there and click "Disable Selected Items" or "Enable Selected Items".
Then “Log Off” and “Log On” again or kill the “Explorer.exe” process and then re-enable it again from Task Manager.
Check my context menu before and after cleaning.
This great tool works on Windows 7, Vista and Windows XP too.
