In the Windows operating system, a context menu is a convenient user interface element that allows users to perform related operations in a specific context. However, as software is installed and uninstalled, along with various types of file associations, context menus can become cluttered, making it difficult for users to quickly find the functionality they need. In this article, we will explore how to optimize context menus in Windows through programming and improve user productivity.

using System;
using System.IO;
using Microsoft.Win32;
