When you install third party programs, they add their entries to the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/Folder/shellex key. These are system wide explorer changes. Customized context-sensitive right click options can be found under
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/Folder/shellex/ContextMenuHandlers
or
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/*/shellex/ContextMenuHandlers
You can delete orphaned or unused handlers from here.
