Hi all...I am a brand new member and I have tried to look up all of the other threads on this site regarding how to delete unwanted context items that show up when right clicking the Recycle bin. I don't know how these items got there but I am nearly always clicking on them instead of emptying the recycle bin option.
I am using the Windows 7 Home addition and cannot use the tools available on Win 7 Pro. Is there any way I can do this? pretty frustrated at this point, but will not give up Windows 7 which I love. Please help if you can...Dan

Well you can disable them.

Before disabling:

After disabling:

The problem with that approach is that context menu entries will be disabled for all types of folder along with the recycle bin.

Disable using ShellMenuView:

Disable from within program options (if they exist)

My personal preference: Don't touch the Recycle Bin and set it (for all drives) to delete files immediately.

Recycle Bin - Permanently Delete Items Automatically
