    Restrict Explorer context menus: In Windows 2000 and XP Pro, you can use the Group Policy tool to remove certain items from the context menu for My Computer and folders. Say you don't want the Manage option on My Computer's right-click menu (which launches the Computer Management administrative tool): Choose Start, Run, type gpedit.msc, and press <Enter>. In the tree pane on the left, navigate to and select Local Computer Policy\User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Windows Explorer. Double-click Hides the Manage item on the Windows Explorer context menu, select Enable, and click OK.

    You can still launch the utility by choosing Start, Programs (or All Programs), Administrative Tools, Computer Management, or by clicking Start, Run, typing compmgmt.msc, and selecting OK.

    To remove the entire context menu for folders, navigate to the Windows Explorer icon on the left as described above, and double-click Remove Windows Explorer's default context menu (in Windows 2000) or Remove Windows Explorer's default context menu (in XP). Select Enable and click OK. The next time you right-click a folder, the desktop, or any icon in Explorer, nothing will happen (toolbar context menus will still work, however). As with the previous tip, undo these changes by returning to the dialog box in question, selecting the Not configured option, and clicking OK.
