Remove a menu item: There are various ways to remove items from the New submenu, depending on what you wish to accomplish. Here are three scenarios:

1. To remove a file type whose program you no longer use, it's best to uninstall the entire application: Double-click the Add/Remove Programs icon in Control Panel, select the program name from the list on the Install/Uninstall tab, and click Add/Remove. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the removal of the software. This sequence should delete the item from the New submenu as well.

2. If the menu item remains after you manually remove the software, go to Explorer, choose View, Options or View, Folder Options, and click the File Types tab. Select the type of file you no longer use and click Remove. Click Yes to confirm the removal. This will expunge the file type from the list of associated files, from the Registry, and from the New submenu.

3. If you want to keep the application related to the file type but remove its icon from the New submenu, open the Registry editor as described earlier. Click the + next to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT. Locate the folder containing the extension of the file type you want to remove, and click the + next to it. In the tree pane on the left, select the ShellNew folder under the proper extension. At this point, you can make a backup of just this branch if you think you'll ever change your mind. Choose Registry, Export Registry File. Designate a name and location, make sure Selected branch is selected, and click Save. Select NullFile or FileName in the right pane (whichever is present), and press Delete and then Enter. If you ever want to restore the item to the menu, find the .reg file you exported and double-click it to reinstate it in the Registry.
