You can disable context menu or the menu you get when you right click on your mouse. You can use this trick as a prank or you can use this to prevent any one from changing options of your folders and applications by right clicking on them. Here is a way to disable the right-clicking or context menu on the entire Desktop, including the Start Button, Taskbar and the System Tray.
Steps
1. Start > Run
2. Type
regedit and press [Enter].
3. First, navigate to
HKEY_CURRENT _USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer.
4. Right-click in the right pane and create a new DWORD value. Name this DWORD key as �NoViewContextMenu�. Double-click on this DWORD and set its value to 1. Click �OK�. This step will disable the context menu for the Desktop.
5. Next, in the same registry key as above, again right-click in the right pane and create another, new DWORD value. Name this DWORD �NoTrayContextMenu�. Double-click on this DWORD and set its value to 1. Click�OK�. This step will disable the context menu for the System Tray.
Finally, we�ll disable the context menu for the Taskbar. To do this, navigate to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced.
6. Right-click in the right pane and create a new DWORD value as before. Name this DWORD �TaskbarContextMenu�. The new DWORD will have a value of 0 � let it remain.
That�s it, you�re done.
Exit the registry editor. Log Off and then log back On for the new settings to take effect. Now try right- clicking anywhere � you won�t be able to!
Note:
To restore the context menus, repeat the above procedures, and simply change back the values from 0 to 1 and 1 to 0 as necessary.
