git - How do I remove msysgit's right click menu options?

Question

This isn't the best programming question but lets face it, the server fault guys aren't well versed in git, so I think its more towards this audience.

I want to switch to TortoiseGit, or PortableGit in my shell, but I'm left with these annoying context-menu options.

How do I get them to go away? Do I have to write a script to uninstall them?

64-Bit Windows

From a cmd.exe window, run these commands:

cd "C:Program Files (x86)Gitgit-cheetah"
regsvr32 /u git_shell_ext64.dll

32-Bit Windows

From a cmd.exe window, run these commands

cd "C:Program FilesGitgit-cheetah"
regsvr32 /u git_shell_ext.dll

Windows 10

If you are on Windows 10 and the previous methods did not work try to uninstall the application and reinstall it. But be careful during the installation process unchecking Windows explorer integration
