How does one go about removing "search..." from folder context menus?
How does one go about removing "format" from drive context menus?
How does one go about removing "create shortcut," "delete" and "rename" from my computer context menu?


I've removed search from everything but my folders and as far as the other ones go, I haven't been able to dig up any information at all about those.

Thanks in advance!

As far as I know, you can't remove "create shortcut" unless you reshack shell32.dll but then it will go away from file and folders as well.

For "delete" and "rename", there might be a way by editing the registry. Best is to read here : http://www.virtualplastic.net/html/ui_shell.html#variations
