How do I get rid of these unwanted options (pic)

I'm specifically referring to the

Add to Zip
Add to AdobeWeb.zip
BitDefender Antivirus v8

I get this when I right click in explorer.exe

[bugster]

Uninstall Winzip and BitDefender AV. That should do it.

Or in the options of the individual programs looks for a setting such as "show context menu" or "show right-click menu" and uncheck the box. Some programs have the option of removing them, some do not.

I would have to think that there is something in the registry for this, but I could not find it.

PC World article, on exactly how to do it:

Most of them are located in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell
Just delete what you don't want.
Edit the registry at your own risk!

I got that using UltimateZip and it does have this option to remove the unwanted options by unticking them.

These options don't worry me even though very rarely used as I just ignore them.
