How to remove .RAR optoins from Win 2K menus?


Recommended Posts

A while back I downloaded a file that was compressed with something

called RAR.

 

I ended up downloading and installing an RAR file utility called

WinRAR and now my Windows 2000 menus are cluttered with RAR menu

items.

 

For example, now in Windows Explorer, when I right click on a file

name, on the little menu that drops down, no less than *four* RAR

items now appear:

 

* Add to archive...

* Add to "Archive.rar"

* Compress and email...

* Compress to "Archive.rar" and email....

 

I find this a bit annoying and would like to clean up the clutter on

the menus. But I would prefer not to have to remove WinRAR

altogether.

 

How can I do this?

Open WinRAR itself......

 

On the top go to options/settings.

 

Hit the integration tab & in the shell integration portion uncheck

"Integrate WinRAR into shell."

Open WinRAR

Open "settings"

Open "integration" tab

Set it up the way you want
