    Hi, Shellexview (free) is the best known, but it does not expose all entries.

    Autoruns (free from MS) covers these and all startups. Entries are categorised, so you can find the shell extensions fairly easily.

    Both use tick boxes to disable items.

    Hi, Dalchina!

    I have googled and tried Shellexview and others but i still can't find the settings that i need to tweak. For e.g. a setting file for ".mp3" extension.

    I also tried CnxtEdit which seem to have more specific support for extensions handling but i still can't disable those settings which will disable the "Restore Previous Versions", "Share" and "Add to Windows Media Player".

    Hi, I mentioned Autoruns which reveals more, but is less easy to use. There are various such programs, and some show only a limited range, others more. For example, Glary's context menu editor seems to reveal some Shellexview does not.

    Those that MS adds such as 'Add to Windows Media Player' may not be accessible.
