Windows question -- ? - GoFuckYourself.com

I don't know what it is called so I can't google it. When you right click on your desktop (not on an icon, just over nothing) is there anyway to customize the menu that pops up? Specifically the options that appear under "New" ?

Thanks in advance!

That would be the Context menu. Do a google search relating to that and see what you come up with.

or install the Tweak UI from Microsoft (if you are running Win XP) http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/d...powertoys.mspx

Install -> start -> programs -> microsoft powertoys -> Tweak UI -> under "my compyter" you can find "templates" you can add/remove/create new elements there

Beat me to it.

it's the shellnew entries from the registry.

TweakUI is the easiest way to do it without actually editing the registry by hand

You mean customize without installing any program? If yes, I think there's a way altering on regedit, but I don't know where is UI scheme of windows on regedit.

Sorry.
