Removing Items in the New List

As you probably know, if you right click on the Desktop or a window and select New, Windows gives you a menu of file types for which you can create a new item. If there is an item on the menu that refers to a software application you don't have on your PC anymore, you can remove it from the list. In My Computer or Windows Explorer choose View on the Menu Bar and then Options. Click the File Types tab. Scroll through the list of registered file types and select the item you want to remove from the New list. Click Remove and then click Yes to confirm.
