Right Click Popup Menu is so long

Figure out which programs are associated with the context menu and disable them. Some programs allow you to pick and choose which items to include in the menu.
 
To edit entries in the right click context sensitive menu you need to use regedit.
go to Start>Run>type:regedit
the directory is HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT and there are a bunch of subdirectories where this applies to. The directories for those in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT are *, Drive, Directory, and Folder. Each directory has Shellex/ContextMenuHandlers/ and in there will be the right click stuff like "Open With" and "Sharing". All you do is delete the offending entries in that directory.
In your case which is a desktop right click menu it should be : HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/Directory/Background/Shellex/ContextMenuHandlers/[list of Right click entries]

Thanx Ev3nt

in my case list entries of Right click is :
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/Directory/Background/Shell

thank you

 
And, don't forget - right click menus are context sensitive - different ones for different associations. They are not "standard," or one size fits all. Try a right click on an empty part of the desktop. Looks like your right click was for the Catalyst Control Center. ???

Well that makes sense since those right click entries are not in the same section as the Catalyst Control Center in your screenshot or Nvidia Control Panel which was in "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/Directory/Background/Shellex/ContextMenuHandlers/". I bet there is a right click menu editor app somewhere out there on the internet. It would be interesting to reverse engineer existing entries to perhaps create your own custom ones.
