Need tool to delete/create context menu entries in Windows..

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general,microsoft.public.windowsxp.help_and_support,microsoft.public.win2000.general (More info?)

I want to add resp. remove some entries in the context menu in the WIndows Explorer.
Normally these entries are setup during installation but I want to manipulate them
manually.

Is there a tool for doing this? It should be able to differntiate between folders, drives
and files resp. different extensions.

You might try these free ones:

Context Edit 1.1 (it's about 1/3 of the way down the page.
http://www.ramlende.com/utilities.html

Fast Explorer
http://thesoftpro.tripod.com/downloads/fe/

If you go to this Google Groups page and read a little, I'm sure there are
more. I haven't used any of therm though.
