Default RE: edit/remove problem

Hi jrbareta,

Thank you for the posting. As you indicated you would like to remove the
command to the file folder type but cannot do so from the edit/remove
buttons in Folder Options.

The command to the file folder type is added to the registry. Therefore,
if you cannot do so from Folder Options user interface, you can try to
delete the registry key directly.

1. Click Start, Run, type regedit in the open box.
2. Click to expand HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
3. Find and locate the folder type you want to edit/remove.
4. Click to expand the sub key of the folder type and check to verify the
command you want to remove.
5. Right click the key in the left pane or the value in the right pane you
want to delete, click Delete.

After the steps above, the command to the file folder type can be removed
compeletly. In order to avoid any potential issue, you can export to
backup the registry key into a .reg file before you delete it.

Hope the above information and suggestion helps and answers your question.
If anything is unclear, please let me know.

Sincerely,

Cherry Qian
