Is there a way to edit the Windows context menu?
I know that I can remove Dropbox from the context menu entirely in regedit, but I don't want that. I want to just remove some of the items on it and only keep "Copy Dropbox link" and "View on Dropbox.com".
Alternatively turn it into a submenu so that it doesn't show all those options every time I right-click a file.
There's so much clutter I don't need!
- Hey Gwillewyn, thanks for posting!
It isn't currently possible to change the context menu items for Dropbox.
While there isn't much I could suggest here as a workaround for this, we do have a request for this in our dedicated area of the Community here.
If you'd like to, you can show your support for this idea by giving it a vote.
Sorry that I can't be of much more help with this, but please let me know if you have any questions!

This sucks. Let me control my experience. Don't impose your stupid clutter. I will now delete all dropbox shortcuts with Regedit since you won't let me select the subset I want.
