Context Menu Cleaner - Efficient Management of Context Menu Entries

In order for some functions to be accessed in a couple of seconds, Windows made it possible for third-party applications to integrate entries in your default context menu. Although not all of them can do this, the context menu can easily become a crowded space. This is exactly the purpose why programs like Context Menu Cleaner were created.

Key Features:

• Efficiently trace context menu entries to the host registry


• Show entries for review before removal


• No installation required, portable on USB flash drive


• User-friendly interface with straightforward navigation


• Backup function for added security

Performance and Compatibility:

Note that the application isn't meant for everyone, because improper management of the system registries can lead to an unstable operating system, or worse. Initiating the search process can keep you waiting for a little while, because the system registry is more crowded than all of your desktops are ever going to be.

Unfortunately, the application hasn't received any updates in quite some time now, and chances are it's not going to run as expected on newer Windows iterations. Even with compatibility settings enabled, you can still encounter various issues.

Results are shown as encountered in the system registry. You see the whole path, as well as a small selection box next to each, in case there are more entries you want to remove at a time. There's also a backup function which is best used before anything else.

Conclusion:

Bottom line is that by now your context menu is sure to have more entries than the one Windows provides, and utilities like Context Menu Cleaner are more than welcome. Although it's not new on the block, it provides an advanced approach on context menu management, which might not appeal to everyone. Sadly, more individuals might look for alternatives, as the old code is not fully compatible with new Windows versions.
