Remove menu items

Nov 21, 2022 10 2483

Shell gives you the ability to remove any item from the context menu with just one line in the static items section without modifying the Windows Registry.

The find property is used to find the item to be removed, and then assign remove to the visibility property

static
{
    item(find='format' visibility="remove")
}

Remove multiple items

static
{
    item(find='"print"|"restore previous versions"' visibility="remove")
}

Hi,
I can't make it work for taskbar menus. For example, I can't hide the Cascade windows item...

What version of Windows are you using?

So, any idea what's wrong ? Here is what I do:

static
{
item(find='Cascade' visibility="remove")
}

Cobe After completing and saving the modifications, you need to reload the settings by pressing Ctrl + Right-Click or restart the Explorer.

I'm trying to remove Go To with this line in the static block: item(find='Go To' visibility="remove").
Also tried with "goto". What's the correct name of the item?

"go to", "terminal" and "develop" are items added by Shell. You can remove them from the "shell.nss" configuration file by deleting the following lines or putting a "//" at the beginning of the line. Then save the changes and restart the explorer.


dynamic
{
    // import 'imports/terminal.nss'
    // import 'imports/develop.nss'
    // import 'imports/goto.nss'
}
