I recently uninstalled WebWasher from my computer. I can't get rid of "Add To Filterlist (WebWasher) from the right-click context menu.

Download the RegCleaner software. it's for free. This program have a variety of options and maybe help you. I solve many troubles with it. Any web-searcher send you to RegCleaner.

G'day Scarletrose, open Regedit and type in either Web Washer and/or Add To Filterlist in the find box and see if it finds it and delete the key. Might be applied to a file-type or folder context menu.
It could also be in one of the Software keys that some of these Registry cleaning programs overlook [Regclean and Norton's Windoc never seem to delete these keys for some reason]

I have Regcleaner which didn't help in this situation. I also tried typing WebWasher, Add To Filter List, in Regedits find, which wasn't found.
Thank you for the suggestions. I'm still trying.
Any and all suggestions are much appreciated.

Thank you all for taking the time to help. Believe it or not I can't get rid of it. I can't even fing reference to it in the registry.
