Remove Edit with Photos right-click menu option<\/h2>\n

Method 1: Using the Registry Editor<\/h3>\n

To remove “Edit with Photos” from the context menu, use this registry edit:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • In the Registry Editor window, go to the following key:\n
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Shell Extensions<\/pre>\n<\/li>\n
  • Create a subkey named “Blocked<\/strong>” if it doesn’t already exist.<\/li>\n
  • With the “Blocked” key selected, create a string value (REG_SZ) named {BFE0E2A4-C70C-4AD7-AC3D-10D1ECEBB5B4}<\/strong><\/code>
    \n\"remove<\/li>\n
  • Exit the Registry Editor.<\/li>\n
  • Log off and log back in for the change to take effect.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
    Edit with Photos<\/strong> entry should now be gone.<\/p>\n
    \n
    Method 2: Using command-line<\/h3>\n
    To remove Edit with Photos<\/strong> using command-line, open a Command Prompt window and run this command:<\/p>\n
    reg add \"HKCU\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Shell Extensions\\Blocked\" \/v {BFE0E2A4-C70C-4AD7-AC3D-10D1ECEBB5B4} \/f<\/pre>\n
    Log off and login back in for the changes to take effect.<\/p>\n
    To reverse the above setting (i.e., to add “Edit with Photos” back), run this command:<\/p>\n
    reg delete \"HKCU\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Shell Extensions\\Blocked\" \/v {BFE0E2A4-C70C-4AD7-AC3D-10D1ECEBB5B4} \/f<\/pre>\n
    Log off and login back in for the changes to take effect.<\/p>\n
