Preference option to disable all context menu items in Explorer/Finder/etc.

[archfrog]

Please add some standard, easy-to-use option to disable ANY AND ALL context menus in Windows Explorer, Finder, etc.  A simple checkbox in the Preferences, General would be awesome.  All methods that I have tried (.reg files, regedit, regsvr32 /u ..., ShExView, etc.) have failed to produce the desired result that there are no Dropbox context menus in Windows Explorer, which is why I am resorting to making an idea here on the Dropbox website.

Please vote, this feature really should be a part of every program that adds menu items to the Windows Explorer context menu 🙂

I just wanted to say that on Windows 11 (which I upgraded to a few days ago), the following code works if only you reboot the machine after the commands have been executed using CMD.EXE:

cd /d "c:\Program Files (x86)\Dropbox\Client"
regsvr32 /u DropboxExt.67.0.dll
regsvr32 /u DropboxExt64.67.0.dll

I guess it will only last until Dropbox updates itself (which happens frequently), but it is better than nothing.  I guess it works on Windows 10 too, I just didn't know that I had to reboot when I tried.
