• How would I go about removing "email" context menus made by WinRAR?

If you use WinRAR you know it installs 2 annoying context menus. 1) "Compress and email..." 2) "Compress to 'folder' and email..." How can I get rid of these? I can't find anything in the registry and some programs don't even find this entries.
What operating system? You can open regedit and remove the keys from the following directory on Win7 and Vista; HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers Alternatively you can use a program such as [url=http://www.lopesoft.com/en]FileMenu Tools[/url] and edit it manually. Problem with both of these methods is that you can't remove specific ones. The entire set of WinRAR Context Menu headers is one registry key, you can't only remove some of the options. You can have either all, or none.
But there has to be some way to change it, so I can just remove two of them.
I haven't used WinRAR in so long however last time I used it there was an option to change what context menu entries were there and whether or not you wanted it to cascade. Click options at the top and piss about in it. If you can't find it I'll install it and look for it.
