@ iins:

Hello iins,

I Believe the space in the word ‘Se nd‘ is there to underline the letter ‘n‘ ; just like other letters in the context menu.

btw. I use the send to menu often and find it very usefull to copy files fast to external hd’s.
If the contextmenu is slow, I think thats mostly caused by 3rd party software.

cheers,

Very useful, thank you.

The “reg” files are the easiest way to quickly tweak some features of windows. It worked very well on my XP. I just have to point out that in the string you have provided “Se nd To]” must be changed to “Send To]”. I did it right away without trying it unchanged.

3 years later and it still works like a charme :)

Thanks for posting this!

My only problem with this is that in Chrome 6.0 it looks like there is a typo, I’m seeing Se Nd To rather than Send To in the registry texts.

Thanks a lot!! This little reg key worked great! I hated that send to crap. It always made me wait to let me go down to Properties!

Wow thanks man, i have had enough headache about that stupid send to context menu. in slower PC, accidentally point to it means “PC hang” for at least 5 seconds. Even on modern machine, a 1-2 seconds delay will take place. Really stupid feature.

I could swear that I don’t remember even thinking about using it in the last 3-4 years. I definitely won’t miss it. :)

I sometimes use it, but like Matt says, I don’t have enough to make it a nuisance :). Useful tip, though.

I use that occasionally, not something I’d class as “extremely useful” but it has been used.. only for transferring stuff to a USB stick without going through My Computer though

Then again it hasn’t gotten so cumbersome on my system as to be a nuisance – if it was entrapping me for x number of seconds as you described then I’d be thanking you by now
