2 'preview' entries in JPEG context menu
« on: January 15, 2008, 07:20:24 PM »
Hello again

Got another one of those classic Windows dumbnesseses...



2 preview entries for context menu in JPEG, as much as I 'love' JPEG, I have no need for the extra entry.

The file type association advanced tab shows no preview commands & the default action shows as open:



Same for both JPEG & JPG extensions...

(gotta larf ain't yu?)

Any clues?

Download, and install ShellExView: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/shexview.html
It'll let you handle context menu entries.

Hi Broni

I have that, & I see this...



I take it it's the shell image verb?

I'm not sure. Could be. Try to disable it, and see what happens with context menu entries.
You may need to restart.

Yep... that worked. Hopefully it doesn't pop it's ugly head up again after a restart.

Thanks Broni  ;)
