Merge this to the registry (paste it into Notepad, save as .reg file and double click it) to remove "Pin to Start Menu (Classic Shell)": Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\exefile\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\StartMenuExt] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\lnkfile\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\StartMenuExt] However it may return after you update Classic Shell |

Thanks, .reg didn't work, so went in and removed both manually. Did the trick. |

In case you want to (a) not remove the keys while (b) still definitely disable the context menu entry (even after updating) I suggest simply blocking the corresponding CLSID: Either from a command line: Code: reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Shell Extensions\Blocked" /v "{E595F05F-903F-4318-8B0A-7F633B520D2B}" /f Or via a .reg file: Code: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Shell Extensions\Blocked] "{E595F05F-903F-4318-8B0A-7F633B520D2B}"="" |

It might actually work. Every component has its own CLSID. |

In Classic Shell 4.0.4, there is a new hidden setting "DisablePinExt". Add a DWORD value of this name to either HKCU\Software\IvoSoft\ClassicStartMenu\Settings or HKLM\Software\IvoSoft\ClassicStartMenu. A value data of 1 hides the "Pin to Start Menu (Classic Shell)" context menu item. This hidden setting is present as a Group Policy setting too called 'Disable the Pin shell extension'. |

I still haven't been able to find out why Explorer (and only Explorer) on my x64 Win 7 Ultimate install cannot be pinned. I somehow unpinned it and now the only rightclick option I get on any Explorer taskbar button is Close Window. |
