VLC Media Player 1.1.4
Although I appreciate the value of VLC Media Player, I have no wish to have "Add to VLC's Media Player's Playlist" added to my right-click context menu.
I have looked in Preferences>Interface but cannot seem to find a way to remove it.
Please advise.
Thanks
I have just found this thread:

I can't believe that with all the different options in Preferences, you have to do a registry hack to get rid of the "Add to VLC's Playlist" from the context menu.
Come on folks, this should be a basic option.

Don't do that when installing.

Re: Right-click context menu not wanted
The simplest way to fix your problem is to uninstall VLC to remove all context menus. Then re-install VLC being careful to watch the options while installing.

You have to enter a number in a box and click Submit to download it.
Registry editing is not the only way to get rid of VLC from context menus.
This way is far easier and simpler.
