  1. Add Disk Cleanup to the Right-Click Menu for a Drive We usually have to either find Disk Clean up through the start menu, or open up the drive property window. Instead of these ways we can use a simple register hack to add a menu item to the drive right-click menu.

  2. Using the Hack • After installation, you can simply right-click on a drive and choose “Disk Cleanup ” from the menu:

  3. If you are using Windows 7 or Vista, you’ll be asked whether you want to clean up your files or all files…

  4. And then disk cleanup will begin:

  5. Manual Registry Hack • Open up regedit through the start menu search or run box, and then browse down to the following key: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell

  6. Create a new key called “disk cleanup” and set the default value to “Disk Cleanup”. Then create another key underneath it called “command” and set the value to the following: cleanmgr.exe /d %1 The change should be immediate, just right-click on the drive and you should see the new menu item.

  7. Downloadable Registry Hack • Simply download, extract, and double-click on DiskCleanupDriveMenu.reg to enter the information into the registry. You can use the included RemoveDiskCleanupDriveMenu.reg file to reverse the changes. • Download Disk Cleanup Drive Menu Register Hack: www.howtogeek.com/geekers/DiskCleanupDriveMenu.zip
