You need to edit the .reg file. You see the lines with =""? There's  one for each context menu item. ="" adds to the blacklist (disables) and =- removes from the blacklist (enables). You need some trial and error to determine which ones you have to set to what. If you do this, please do report back and tell me which items correspond to which menu items so I can update the labels.
