Right Click Enhancer

Right Click Enhancer is a Windows utility for reshaping context menus and adding file-management commands. It suits users who rely on Explorer shortcuts and repeatable menu workflows, especially across more than one PC. The broad toolkit is useful, but the inability to reorder existing entries and the Professional trial’s feature limits should influence a purchase.

Overview

Right Click Enhancer acts as a control panel for the Windows right-click menu. It combines shortcut creation, menu cleanup, file-routing commands, and several older Windows configuration tools instead of focusing on one narrow task. That makes it a practical choice for users who want one utility for several context-menu changes, while users seeking a simple launcher may find its wider scope unnecessary.

Key features

Right Click Shortcuts Creator adds shortcuts to applications, files, and folders, with submenus for grouping related destinations. This is well suited to people who repeatedly open the same tools or project locations from Explorer. Existing right-click entries cannot be reordered, however; only entries inside a submenu created by the Shortcuts Creator can be arranged.

Right Click Editor removes or disables unwanted menu entries. Separate controls add destinations to Send To and provide Copy to folder and Move to folder actions, making common file-routing operations available directly from the context menu. These functions are useful for administrative or file-heavy workflows, but they do not solve the ordering limitation for the entries Windows already supplies.

The New menu can gain or lose file types, and the utility can create file types with default content. Additional tools edit Internet Explorer context-menu entries, file associations, and file descriptions, and include productivity tweaks such as God Mode. That breadth favors users maintaining a customized Windows environment rather than people who need only a few shortcuts.

Settings can be exported to a registry file and applied on other PCs. This makes a carefully arranged setup reusable, although applying registry-based customizations calls for appropriate care on each target machine.

The Professional trial has no time limit, but it permits only four added shortcuts and cannot remove or disable entries with submenus or images, identified as Shell Extensions. Installer and Zip downloads are offered for both the Professional trial and the Free version. RBSoft says crash reports may contain operating-system and.NET versions; email and a screenshot are optional, and crash-report information is not shared. Releases are checked with VirusTotal, with links to VirusTotal and Jotti results, while the maker acknowledges that some antivirus programs have flagged the Professional version.

Pricing

It gives up the full shortcut and menu-management feature set, so users who need the complete toolkit should choose Professional for one computer or Business for three computers, including two PCs and one laptop. Both paid licenses are one-time purchases rather than subscriptions. The Professional license covers commercial and personal use and is per computer.

RBSoft advertises lifetime email and forum support plus free major and minor upgrades for the product’s lifetime. Payments are handled through FastSpring and PayPal. Refunds are not issued except for duplicate purchases, so the indefinite but restricted Professional trial is important before buying.

Platforms

Right Click Enhancer is Windows-only. The Professional and Free editions can be downloaded as either an installer or a Zip archive.

Who it's for

Choose it if your work revolves around Windows Explorer and you want application, file, and folder shortcuts alongside Send To, copy, move, and New-menu controls. The export function also suits anyone who maintains similar configurations on multiple machines. It is a weaker fit if precise ordering of Windows’ existing context-menu entries is essential, or if you need a cross-platform tool.

Pros and cons

Pros

Broad Windows coverage: shortcuts, menu cleanup, file actions, New and Send To editing, associations, and related tweaks share one utility.

Reusable configurations: registry-file export lets you apply customizations on other PCs.

Flexible licensing: the Free plan covers unlimited PCs, while one-time Professional and Business plans cover one computer or three devices respectively.

Indefinite trial: you can evaluate Professional features without a time deadline, within its shortcut and Shell Extension restrictions.

Cons

No general menu reordering: existing entries stay in their Windows-defined order.

Trial restrictions are material: only four shortcuts are allowed, and Shell Extension entries cannot be removed or disabled.

Refund policy is narrow: refunds are limited to duplicate purchases.

Windows only: there is no macOS or other-platform edition.

Verdict

Right Click Enhancer is a strong fit for Windows users who want one place to add shortcuts, streamline file actions, and maintain several context-menu and system tweaks. Its main reason to choose it is the breadth of controls combined with exportable settings and one-time licensing. Look elsewhere if reordering existing menu entries is central to your workflow, if you need another platform, or if the Professional trial’s four-shortcut and Shell Extension limits block a meaningful evaluation.
