windows vista – right click -> new

i must be totally suffering from a brain dead moment right now because i have been really struggling with finding a tool that will help me remove some of these template files when you right click the desktop and click new. i don’t want to create any new files besides txt files via this menu.

when you install programs, they sometimes will add new templates to this menu. the only way i know how to remove these files is to edit the registry, but there’s got to be an easier way.

in windows XP, the tweakui tool made by microsoft performed this function. i’m disappointed that there haven’t been similar tools ported over to vista.

  1. i looked at tweakvi, but i couldn’t find where the option was to do what i wanted to do. and yes, they are reg key entries, BUT, i get really unhappy when i have to dig through the registry. there should be software out there that makes my life easier!
