Cleaning up context menu

[tbm]

I'm trying to clean up my right click/context menu in XY. Back when I was using the regular Windows Explorer I used a registry hack to hide "Give access to" and "Restore previous versions" from the right-click menu.

The registry edit still works if I use the regular Windows Explorer but the options are still visible within XY unless I tick the "Show the 64 bit context menu" (but then I lose any custom XY context options.)

Explain the registry hack.

It's detailed on a lot of sites but basically as explained here:

https://www.thewindowsclub.com/remove-r ... ntext-menu

I created the string value {596AB062-B4D2-4215-9F74-E9109B0A8153} at this path:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Shell Extensions\Blocked

There's also a similar edit to get rid of the 'Share' context option. Now when I right-click a file in Windows Explorer I no longer see the context options for:

>Share
>Give access to
>Restore Previous Versions

But in XY the right-click options for all those are still present (although the 'Share' option does nothing when clicked).

I think you also have to block it here to be effective in the 32-bit menu: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\

That was it - thanks!
