GREAT TIP.
Now how do I remove the context
menu safely?
Thanks ina davance for replying.
Just use '-' (minus sign) in front of CLSID,
eg:- Modify value as
'-{C2FBB631-2971-11d1-A18c-00c04FD75D13}'
instead of
'{C2FBB631-2971-11d1-A18c-00c04FD75D13}'
This will remove move to folder option safely..

Thanks for the reply!
The minus helps to disable.
If a re-enable it has the
side-effect that when I use
WINKEY+E it doesn't open the Explorer at once but first shows
the copy/move dialog.
Is there a way I can still use the
original shortcut for opening the explorer.exe and sitill use the
copy to/move to feature from your registry adaption ?
Much obliged for your answer.
