The rule is to disable non-Microsoft context menu handlers *one-by-one* and verify if the problem is solved. If disabling one does not solve the problem, undo the disabled item and disable the next non-Microsoft handler. Do the same until the problem is solved and finally identify the culprit. Scroll right to see the Company Name column in ShellExView.

NOTE: It's not always the Context menu handler, but a PropertySheet handler or an Icon Handler may be the culprit sometimes.

if all else fails try running sfc /scannow to fix the problem, although this will take about 45mins to an hour to run on some systems.

may have downloaded something else and not the app :-) websites seem to be very good at misleading people from the actual application you are looking for.

Bingo! After disabling and enabling loads on the list I finally got to this one:

Express Zip File Compression Software Yes Context Menu No No No No No No C:\Program Files\NCH Software\ExpressZip\ezcm.dll {8EEA165E-0B8B-4BA7-9796-50214C767171} 26/04/2011 10:26:22 26/04/2011 10:26:23 No *, .cab, .rar, .zip, Folder A 768,512 No
......and the problem has now gone. Many thanks Dave. This has been bugging me for ages. :thumbright:
