Remove the duplicate "Open with" menu entry

[jpeni]

XYplorer displays an "Open with..." option.
Windows File Explorer ALSO displays an "Open with..." option.

To REMOVE the unneeded Windows File Explorer "Open with..." display from XYplorer - Click WIN+R and enter "regedit" to open the Registry Editor. In the editor, delete the following entry:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Open With

Now only the XYplorer "Open with..." with be listed on the context menu.

I think some users may be glad of this information, but FYI XYplorer doesn't create any registry entries, so that part of your screenshot is incorrect.

And XY Open With entry can be enabled/disabled via XY settings here:
