Ever since I installed this updated version of ATI Catalyst Display drivers, i have been plagued by this terrible menace. The “ATI Catalyst Control Center” is the first item that pops up on my context menu. This can be really frustrating, especially for geeks who is so much adapted with the keystrokes for File>New.
Here’s a neat way to remove the item from the context menu for good.
Open regedit and goto
KEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\ACE
and remove the key named “ACE”. And voila… dilemma solved 
Here are the registry keys to disable it and to enable it again (just in case)
Thanks a lot
