User Reviews

  • Thank you very much for the free open source program!
  • Unsupported, on Win10 it works but I was not able to abilitate "new" for libreoffice files (apparently they are abilitated in the registry but still not present in Win 10 "new" context menù)
  • Nice easy single purpose program. It works, save me parsing the registry.
  • Thanks for this. Pretty useful and easy to use.
  • Excellent tool. Thank you. Lists ALL disabled items in "New" menu (ShellMenuNew by Nirsoft does NOT) Comment by fc1943: how can you call it a failure, at no point does the program description even hint at "add" a new item. It is hide or show (disable or enable) ... very simple.
