Which menus?

If "send to", then go to "C:\windows\sendto" and delete the shortcuts you don't want.

If the "new" menu check out this: http://www.windows-help.net/windows98/tune-08.shtml

Hope this helps

thanks for the reply
neither of the submenus are what I concerned with.
when I rt. click a folder, several items appear, many of them twice.
for instance there are several choices that are for winzip, as well as other software programs. I never use the menu in this way, and would like to remove the items I don't use.
thanks for the info on the submenus tho...good to know.

Send a message via ICQ to needhelp
I am sure there must be a way to remove them but why would you want to.

needhelp-
the biggest reason I want to remove them is because sometimes the list is so long, i have to scroll down almost 2 pages to get to the simple commands like delete or rename.....

Try searcing the http://www.windows-help.net/ database.

Yeah, I just took a look at my right-click menu and there's some junk there, but nothing that bugs me...too much.
