Any of you who have installed Adobe CS4 will know you will get a context menu entry for Adobe CS4 Drive, even if you chose not to install the actual program so effectively the entry is useless. After some googling and experimenting found two ways to remove it.

1. Install & Uninstall

Install Adobe CS4 Drive using the installer then uninstall it. This seems to get rid of it.

2. Manual Remove

Open Regedit and delete these two entries.

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AllFilesystemObjects\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\{C95FFEAE-A32E-4122-A5C4-49B5BFB69795}

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\{C95FFEAE-A32E-4122-A5C4-49B5BFB69795}

Hope this helps some people.

Great! Thank; saved me a lot of research.

This is an even easier method to get rid of the Drive menu and not have the DLL loaded:

START -> Run...

regsvr32 /u "%CommonProgramFiles%\Adobe\Adobe Drive CS4\ADFSMenu.dll"

on 64bit Windows:

START -> Run...

regsvr32 /u "%CommonProgramFiles(x86)%\Adobe\Adobe Drive CS4\ADFSMenu.dll"

I have installed Adobe CS4, but I don't have any context menu entry's for Adobe CS4 Drive.

Maybe you guys missed an option that relates to this while customising your install?

Use this one instead

regsvr32 /u "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Drive CS4\ADFSMenu.dll"

This works perfect while the regedit method does not work (on 64).

thanks

I really hate how it wasn't optional to unselect it during install. :no:

That's easy to fix. On the disc, navigate to the payloads folder. In there you will find two folders; AdobePhotoshop11-core and AdobePhotoshop11-core_x64.

In each of those folders you will find a file named AdobePhotoshop11-core.proxy.xml and AdobePhotoshop11-core_x64.proxy.xml.

Open AdobePhotoshop11-core.proxy.xml (make a backup first) and find the section that begins with <Dependencies>, highlight from <Dependencies> to </Dependencies> and replace with the below changes.

  &lt;Dependencies&gt;
	&lt;ProductInfo type="required"&gt;
				&lt;Family&gt;Photoshop&lt;/Family&gt;

* not everything that is set to recommended will be able to be unchecked.

Unregistering the dll doesn't seem to work for me on Vista x64 or Win7 x64, as the file path specified doesn't exist. Also I have just found out if you search for {C95FFEAE-A32E-4122-A5C4-49B5BFB69795} in the registry and delete all entries it should get rid of the entry from everywhere (Y).

Update for win7 RC. Unregistering the dll doesn't work you have to rename the dll or delete it.

I'm running 64bit seven rc.

I can't find the .dll anywhere. It not in either the 64 or 86 program files folders referred to. But when I enter regsvr32 /u "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Drive CS4\ADFSMenu.dll" it says successfully unregistered but drive context menu is still present.

Any thoughts

Here is what you need to do if you have Windows 7 RC 64- bit (build 7100). None of what people have said worked for me. I realized you need to run the command prompt with administrator privileges for the changes to take effect.

1. Start > All Programs > Accessories > right click Command Prompt and select Run As Administrator

2. Type the following: regsvr32 /u "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Drive CS4\ADFSMenu.dll"

3. Click OK and then check by right clicking on a file in a Windows Explorer window.

Thanks, that worked for me. I never could get it to work in Vista though, oddly. I tried everything mentioned in this thread too. That's moot now though. :yes:

This is the method posted by Phaelox, modified for Windows 7 beta 64-bit:

Just type in Start>Run...

regsvr32 /u "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Drive CS4\ADFSMenu.dll"

\o/

Sorry to bump this, but wanted to say thanks. This worked for me.

Stupid Adobe.

    • Microsoft accidentally replaced Windows 11 startup sound with one from Vista

      By ToniCipriani · Posted

      The sound never left. My Windows 10 installation still has it enabled, I found the checkbox in an earlier build and turned it on and my PC chimes every time it cold boots. That's how I know Windows Update didn't shut down after updating despite me telling it to. That being said... seeing Apple Liquid Glass has me thinking, if Windows 11 brought back the 7 Aero Glass running on top of the new kernel, minus the AI crap, I might actually be willing to move to it.

      These days the differences are small, so if you're a petty nerd over dumb things, you'll be forever stuck behind and won't ever enjoy the latest and current niceties. Yup, it's a real life lesson too.
    • Microsoft 365 Roadmap Weekly: New features for the new Outlook, Copilot updates and more

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Microsoft 365 Roadmap Weekly: New features for the new Outlook, Copilot updates and more by David Uzondu This week, Microsoft added a slew of new entries to the public Microsoft 365 Roadmap, including plans for Teams, the new Outlook, and, of course, Copilot and Copilot Chat. Starting with Outlook, three practical updates are headed for the new Outlook for Windows client. First up, you'll finally be able to add attachments to emails while you are offline, a basic function that has been sorely missed. The remaining two features are slated for August. One will let you create a rule that specifically triggers a desktop alert. The other adds a folder deletion warning. If you try to delete a folder on which an email rule depends, Outlook will stop you and prompt you to fix the rule first. Like Google with Gemini, Microsoft continues to push Copilot deeper into its applications, with several updates planned for mid-2025. Later this month, Copilot will be able to give you a quick summary of recent changes and comments on a file right from the backstage view in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, before you even open the document. Also, Copilot Chat will get the ability to limit its responses to selected content sources, like specific SharePoint sites or files, which should make its answers more focused. Next month, PowerPoint users will get two more Copilot tricks. You will be able to rewrite selected text using a custom natural language prompt and add entirely new topics to an existing presentation, with Copilot generating slides that match the existing look and feel. Edge is not left out, as its integrated Copilot Chat will soon be able to access content across multiple open tabs, not just the active one, with that update scheduled for August. Finally, for organizations that heavily use Teams Rooms Pro on Windows, an August update will allow for simultaneous town hall and webinar views. This will keep the presenter's backstage controls, like green room and backroom chat, hidden from the main audience display in the room.

      Absolutely. Things like Recall.
    • It's been four years, and I still don't have a strong enough reason to upgrade to Windows 11

      By Nick H. · Posted

      The only reason I have Windows 11 is because it came with the new machine. I was quite happy with Windows 10. Windows 11 has its own issues just like any OS, but honestly after the fear-mongering towards Windows 11 while I was on Windows 10, I thought I would be more frustrated. I still prefer my daily OS, but Windows 11 isn't the worst thing in the world for what I use it for.
