I have a question about Customize Context Menus:

Hello, I would like to add a separator in a context menu. Is it possible to put a separator line in a specific area of the context menu? I have tried several ideas directly working with the registry that I found on the web, and also various 'context menu tweak' programs. But none of them offer this command. Thanks for any ideas.

Which menu you have in mind?Download the "ResHacker" with that editor you have to 
modify the particular .dll file or exe.Forget Regedit.

I appreciate your advice. I would like to apply separator lines in general to context menus for all files, if possible (provided there is some control over where it is placed). I have dyslexia, and one of the problems I have is selecting 'delete' in place of 'rename'. Can you believe?! So, I would like to "isolate" the delete with seperator lines on all context menus- as it stands now, they are next to each other. And, with any success there with this, I might just have fun with the concept, and tweak the menus a little more. I don't know, but it is very interesting and fun to have more control over my OS, customizing is fun, but with this condition, it will also make simple tasks, worry free. I will try "ResHacker". Thank you again.

also might be worth checking some of the advanced settings under "display" and "accessability options" in control panel, these enable things like high contrast , coloured buttons, fonts / size etc.

Don't know if I have dyslexia too but many times I deleted instead of renaming.So 
I moved the menu item Delete up one notch.It is in Shell32.dll -Menu\210.If you going 
to do it you have to start in System32\Dllcache\Shell32.dll.Rename shell32.dll in 
system32 and copy the modified file from dllcache to system32.Need help let me know 
tomorrow it's past midnight here.
 
you can see the modified menu 
here.
