R click context menu options Hello,
Where / how in the registry can I change/add/delete, especially add & delete to the options made available to me in the "SEND TO" portion of the right-click context menu??? Or, at the very least, where can I locate this in the registry???
Thanks,

Have a look at this little tool, Send to toys, http://www.snapfiles.com/get/sendto.html
It let's you customize the send to context menu.

This is actually one of the easiest things to do. No tools or reg edits. For this first method, you must have hidden folders showing, then navigate to C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo (where username is your actual user name) Send To Context Menu - Vista Forums
Or you can type (or copy and paste)
%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo
In the search box on start menu
That is where all the send to shortcuts are. You can just delete any there to remove them from the context menu. Conversely, you can drag any shortcuts there that you want to add. That's it.

Another neat trick you can do is add a Send to to the Send to folder. Then any time you want to add something as a Send to target, just right click, select Send to then choose Send to as the target. Poof ... it's there.

How do you get the "Folder" in the send to menu? That's what I'm looking for - send (move/copy) to any folder. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Hewlett Packard dv4-1222nr OS Windows 7 CPU AMD Turion X2 RM-72 2.10 GHz Dual-Core Mobile Processor Memory 4GB Graphics Card ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics RS780M Monitor(s) Displays 14.1" LCD Hard Drives 250GB (5400RPM) Internet Speed 3.0 MBPS (down) / 1.0MBPS (up) |

Dockster, I don't remember doing anything special to have Folder as a Send to target. If I did, I don't remember what it was, sorry. The Copy to/Move to derekimo gave you is similar. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Dell Precision 370 OS Windows 7 Pro X64 CPU Intel Pentium 4 Dual LP 3.4Ghz Memory 4GB DDR PC2-5200 ECC Graphics Card NVIDIA Quadro FX 3400/4400 Sound Card SoundMAX Integrated Digital Audio Monitor(s) Displays HP 22" w2207 LCD Screen Resolution 1680 x 1050 Hard Drives 300GB Maxtor 6L300RD PATA
