Hello folks! Can someone tell me how to remove entries from right click context menu on the start button after uninstalling a program (ie Partition Magic) .Any advice??? Thanks.

There is software available to edit the context menus. I think TweakUI has that capability, and "cleaner" programs such as Norton CleanSweep will remove all remnants of old uninstalled programs. If you're comfortable editing the registry, you'll probably find them stored under;

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell

and

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\CLASSES\Directory\shel l

Caution. Improper editing of the registry can cause serious Windows problems. And as always, back up your registry before making changes.
