How to remove AVG 2017 menu items from Windows context menu?
I would like to remove AVG 2017 context menu items because they make the context menu too wide in Russian language. The menu items I currently have are "Scan ... with AVG" and "Shred... with AVG". On the internet I found instructions for AVG 2016, but I can't find such settings in AVG 2017 (AVG Antivirus Free version 17.5.3022). The methods of older versions don't work either, because there doesn't seem to be avgse.dll in AVG installation anymore.
Can you provide the steps on how to remove AVG context menu items for the recent version of AVG?
