I would like my My computer menu to look like this


Recommended Posts

Here is a screen shot of what i would like my right click My Computer context menu to look like. I am unable to find many of the tweaks required to do this. Does anyone know the registry tweaks that would apply these settings.

The reg tweaks file on here has a few of them but not all.

thanks

If you know where some of them are, then you already know which keys in the registry need to be modified, and in fact can see how they need to be modified to launch and app or applet. Just alter the path of the required .exe, .dll, or .msc file in the registry key and include the command to show on the menu. I'd understand if you didn't know where to start, but you clearly do. Have you really tried to make it work as you want and failed? The CLSID you are looking for is {20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}.

The following is from a library of tweaks that I downloaded from some kind soul here on the forum a couple of years ago. You should be able to make any adjustments or modification you need from there.

thanks for the reply. Already have those tweaks you posted i was looking for how i

remove "Open" from the my computer context menu.

Also Device Manager does not work because of some error. The error reads that my MMC might be a different version or something. Which i did the patch to upgrade to 3.0 so how to i make the tweak take effect knowing that?

What about adding the "New Folder here" option or "select all items" i have no idea how to create those.

All of that can easily be found in the tips and tweaks section by searching.

The mmc error was ussually caused by a conflict between xpize and a windows update but that was fixed LONG ago.
