On selecting any file or object in Windows Vista and right clicking it will always show the “Send To” option.If this needs to be disabled,there is a simple registry hack (like most of the stuff we come across in Windows) to accomplish that.
This registry hack will involve something called as ContextMenuHandlers where the key that controls the Send To option is present.
With administrative rights,open Registry Editor (Start > Run > regedt32)
Navigate to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTAllFilesystemObjectsshellexContextMenuHandlersSend To
Here,there is the default key with the following value data :
{7BA4C740-9E81-11CF-99D3-00AA004AE837}
Just remove this value data and save the key.This will take care of the Send To option,right clicking any file or object in Vista from now on with this changed key will not show the Send As option.
Like almost all registry hacks,this is reversible.To enable Send As again,simply copy paste this value data {7BA4C740-9E81-11CF-99D3-00AA004AE837} to the default key.
Isn’t Windows fun ?
Peace.
