You can disable context menu or the menu
you get when you right click on your mouse. You can use this trick as a
prank or you can use this to prevent any one from changing options of
your folders and applications by right clicking on them. Here is a way
to disable the right-clicking or context menu on the entire Desktop,
including the Start Button, Taskbar and the System Tray.
Steps
- Start > Run >Type regedit and press [Enter].
- First, navigate to
HKEY_CURRENT _USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer.
- Right-click in the right pane and create a new DWORD value. Name this DWORD key as “NoViewContextMenu”. Double-click on this DWORD and set its value to 1. Click ‘OK’. This step will disable the context menu for the Desktop.
- Next, in the same registry key as above, again right-click in the right pane and create another, new DWORD value. Name this DWORD “NoTrayContextMenu”. Double-click on this DWORD and set its value to 1. Click‘OK’. This step will disable the context menu for the System Tray.
- Finally, we’ll disable the context menu for the Taskbar. To do this, navigate to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced.
- Right-click in the right pane and create a new DWORD value as before. Name this DWORD “TaskbarContextMenu”. The new DWORD will have a value of 0 – let it remain.
That’s it, you’re done.
Exit the registry editor. Log Off and
then log back On for the new settings to take effect. Now try right-
clicking anywhere – you won’t be able to!
Note:
To restore the context menus, repeat the
above procedures, and simply change back the values from 0 to 1 and 1
to 0 as necessary.
