Menu Maid is another menu editor for Windows Explorer and you might wonder why you would need another editor. The main advantage of Menu Maid is its streamlined design which makes it easy and convenient to edit Windows Explorer entries.

Menu Maid (via Tech Quest) displays two tabs after startup. The first displays right-click items in Internet Explorer while the second does the same for Windows Explorer. The entries are divided into categories. The Windows Explorer entries are for example divided into Everything, Directories, Drives and Folders. Each category lists items that are displayed when right-clicking specific icons in Windows Explorer.

You can disable any item with one click which means that it only takes a few seconds to remove all entries that are not needed in Windows Explorer. Changes will be visible immediately. There was however on entry (Groove folder synchronization) that continued to show up even after it was disabled in Menu Maid. Since it is installed with Microsoft Office it seems to be that it is controlled by other settings in the operating system.

Menu Maid has a size of 123 Kilobytes and can be helpful if you prefer an efficient interface without in depth information about the context menu handlers.
