The right-click list as you refer to it is actually called the "context list".\n\nAnd Kowboey's answer to you is wrong! It can be edited but you do need to have quite a bit of knowledge in registry constuction and use. I'm sure you know that tampering with the register can be risky and you should always back it up before you touch it! \n\nHowever, I'll give you one safe change you can make and I'll let you take it from there!\n\nSince Windows Explorer toolbar doesn't contain the handy Create New Folder button, you may want to consider adding the New Folder command to Windows XP's context menu. Here are some the necessary step-by-step instructions to make one easy and valuable change.\nWhen you access the Open or Save dialog box in any application, you know that the toolbar contains the Create New Folder button. However, Microsoft has never put such a handy button on the toolbar in Windows Explorer. (The Make A New Folder command in the Tasks Explorer Bar is a step in the right direction, but it isn't quite as convenient as a toolbar button.)\nFortunately, you can add a New Folder command to Windows XP's context menu. Here's how:\n1.Launch Windows Explorer and select Tools | Folder Options. \n2.In the Folder Options dialog box, select the File Types tab. \n3.In the Registered File Types list, select Folder, and click the Advanced button. \n4.In the Edit File Type dialog box, click the New button. \n5.In the New Action dialog box, type New Folder in the Action text box and CMD.EXE /C MD "%1&#92;New Folder" in the Application Used To Perform Action text box. \n6.Click OK twice and then click Close to close the three dialog boxes. \nNow, whenever you want to create a new folder in Windows Explorer, simply right-click on the folder in which you want to create the folder and select the New Folder command from the context menu. Keep in mind that when you do so, you'll momentarily see a Command Prompt window and there will be a slight delay before you actually see the new folder.\nTo remove the New Folder command, you have to edit the registry. Here's how:\n1.Launch the Registry Editor (Regedit.exe). \n2.Go to HKEY_CLASSES_Root&#92;Folder&#92;Shell key and expand the subtree. \n3.Locate and right-click the New_Foldersubkey and select Delete. \nNote: Editing the registry is risky, so be sure you have a verified backup before saving any changes.

just click and drag the folders/items around in the menu...\n\n\n\nJust click on it, and don't release the mouse button.  you should see a little black line.  Release the mouse button when the item is where you want it to be.\n\nit takes a little practice :)

Well, I'm going to assume that you're using Windows XP, although the method should be similar to other versions of Windows.\n\nYou can choose a folder to be Hidden by right-clicking the folder, going to Properties, and checking the Hidden box under Attributes at the bottom.\n\nIf you're still seeing your hidden folder (it will appear kind of faded), it means that you currently have your option of viewing hidden folders on.  To change that, go to Tools > Folder Options > View > and select whether or not you want to be able to see your folder under the "Hidden files and folders" option.\n\nI hope this helps  :)

You can either go vie the tools menu (the little cog symbol) or you can hit F10 to bring up the old-style menubar :)

In Windows XP Professional, the Start menu contains a My Recent Documents folder that contains 15 of your recently used documents. To remove the record of recently accessed documents:\n\n1.\n \n\nRight-click Start, click Properties, and then click Customize.\n\n2.\n \n\nClick the Advanced tab, and then click Clear List. If you're using the Classic Start menu, click Clear.\n\nClicking Clear List empties the My Recent Documents folder. It doesn't delete the documents from your computer. If you don't want to include anything in the My Recent Documents folder:\n• \n\nOn the Advanced tab, click Customize, and then clear the List my most recently opened documents check box.\n\nIn Windows XP Home Edition, My Recent Documents is not automatically listed on the Start menu. You can turn on this feature by right-clicking Start, clicking Properties, clicking Customize, and then selecting the List my most recently opened documents check box.

When you right click on a file and then drag it on to any other location, windows gives you options to "Move", "Copy", "Create Shortcuts" to the new location or "Cancel" the operation. \n\nTry it!

First of all try the suggestions given above in previous answers.\nMake sure you are able to see the folder options tab in Tools menu. If it is not visible then you have been infected by a virus named Rontokbro\n\nSolution for this virus is available on net. It will repair the damage done by the virus.
