How to remove git from menu context in Documents?

I Think I've found other reference about it. I've delete mine on 

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\LibraryFolder\background\shell

Based on https://stackoverflow.com/a/32490883/4906348, Quite simple, I never think about it. You should see like this.

The Git Bash here on Library Background

From This Before Registry delete

To This. It works. After Registry Delete

Note
For Windows 10, there may be also keys in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Directory\background\shell and/or HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Directory\shell\git_shell which you may have to delete as well.


You need to delete these keys:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\git_gui

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\git_shell

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\LibraryFolder\background\shell\git_gui

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\LibraryFolder\background\shell\git_shell

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Directory\background\shell\git_gui

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Directory\background\shell\git_shell

This works with Windows 10.1803 and Git 2.25.0 (YMMV with other Windows/Git versions).
