I have looked around and cannot find anything about this anywhere. When I
right click and go to the send to option I have way too many options. I can send to all of my personal folders and drives, but in the send to folder none of these things are listed. Also, the personal folders are listed twice. How do I get rid of all this? |

You can type shell:sendto directly into the start/search box. Hit enter and
it should take you to he C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Window s\SendTo Do the extra entries show up there? -- Jane, not plain 64 bit enabled :-)Batteries not included.

the shell:sendto command won't work. It tells me access is denied. So I typed
in the whole address and got to the sendto folder. All I have in there is: Compressed (zipped) folder, desktop (create shortcut), documents, and mail recipient.

Apparently C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Window s\SendTo, the
default location, is no longer where the registry has a path to your SendTo folder. Are you aware of ever having moved it? What addresses, in the Registry, are shown for SendTo in these two keys? HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders and HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders In the first key, the address, under Data, will be written something like this: C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Window s\SendTo In the second key, the address, under Data, will be written something like this: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Se ndTo "knaveman" wrote in message ... the shell:sendto command won't work.

I looked up both keys and the second one was wrong so I changed it. Now I
have the shortcuts that I am supposed to (compressed folder, mail recipient, etc) in addition to ALL the other crap.

Drives in the Sendto folder are a function of the registry. To remove
those, you can download nodrivesinsendto.reg, found he How to hide drive-letters from the Send To menu in Windows Vista, by Ramesh Srinivasan: http://www.winhelponline.com/articles/181/1/ All the other entries you can hide or delete, by going to the C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Window s\SendTo folder.
