To remove option NEW from right-click menu when you click on desktop, follow these steps: 1. Start registry editor by clicking START --> RUN and type in regedit 2. Navigate to the following registry key: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\New 3. In the LEFT editor panel right-click on this key named "NEW" and choose EXPORT; then choose some location where to export this key in case something goes wrong!!! 4. In the LEFT editor panel right-click on this key named "NEW" and click DELETE DONE! In case you need to restore changes for any reason, just find the .reg file you exported in step #3, double click the file, and entries are back in the registry!
