    Looking for a Utility to control the Context Menu/Right Click options
    Hi,

    I am using XP pro.

    Is anyone aware of a good utility (ideally freeware if possible) which will let me control what options get displayed when I get the context menu upon right click of the mouse.

    Thanks for the reply. I have managed to find a utility called FileMenu Tools 5.6 and it pretty much served the purpose. I did try TweakUI: Microsoft PowerToys for Windows XP but did not like it. However I will give ShellMenuView and ShellExView and try.
