If Photoshop CS2 is installed and you right click a picture the "open with" menu pops out and displayes all options available for opening that picture.
That menu is huge and just has way to many options.
Is there any way i can edit this somewhere?

Thanks

First get rid of the droplets you don't want:
Find the droplets in Photoshop folder -> Samples -> Droplets (one folder for Image Ready, one for Photoshop), then make two zip archive with all the droplets, one in each folder. Keep the zip files and the droplets you want to keep and trash the rest of them.

Then use Terminal and the command
Code:
/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user
to reset the context menu.

Mitthrawnuruodo: Perfect.. i will try it as soon as i get home.
I don't know why they included all that without asking when installing or let the user check on/off a list they want instead of this bloated menu.

Tank you for helping :)
