Hi. Can somebody tell me how to remove programs that stays in the menu when i right click on any of my desktop files ?
Here's the problem described as good as i possibly can describe it :
After installation of bitdefender antivirus i got an option to scan a file for virus after i right clicked my mouse on it. But i have uninstalled the bitdefender antivirus now, but the option to scan files for virus is still in the options menu when i right click on any of my files. How do i remove it from the options menu ?

Here is an article that describes how to customize right-rlick menu options. You'll need to edit Registry, but it isn't difficult. Hope it will help!

You need some small tool that could check bad section of Windows code and improve bad part.. Try CCleaner or RegCleaner.
