I installed EMC 8 Deluxe last night (did not install Drag to Disc or the Media Manager) and during the install I made sure I only associated the Roxio project files.. no audio or video file types were associated.

Anyway, when I right-click on .WAV and .MP3 files in Windows Explorer, the very top item in bold is "Edit Tag" which launches the Roxio Audio Tag application (RxTagEdit8.exe).

How to I remove this entry? I looked in the registry in HKCR/*/Shellx and HKCR/.mp3/Shell and HKCR/Winamp.file/Shell and could not find anything.

Example is seen here:

What's interesting is that it has the Icon for Pspad next to it. If I remove Pspad from the context menu, the icon does not show up. Everywhere else the icon shows next to Pspad correctly. It's only where Edit Tag is on the context menu that this happens.

Anyway, I have other tagging software I use so I don't need/want edit tag to be there.

Thanks,

I don't think that is really EMC 8 Deluxe. EDIT TAG doesn't show up in Explorer on my machine. When you click on it, what program runs?

I have a similar choice when right clicking a music file and when I open it, it shows the pic shown. I'm not sure what program put it there but I do have MediaMonkey installed as well as DB Power Amp Music Converter. I don't think it's a Roxio program since it's not on my laptop.

RxTagEdit8.exe is the process that runs. It is located in C:\Program Files\Roxio\EMC8\AudioMaster.

The interface looks like:

I did have the normal Roxio EMC8 installed previously, but I uninstalled it before installing this version.

I might uninstall the software again and then hunt down the Roxio, Sonic, and Shared Folders and delete all of it.. then hunt down RxTagEdit8.exe in the registry and get rid of all those keys if they still exist. Even so, there should be an entry in the registry to get rid of it.. LOL.. I found the Pspad, Winamp, and Media Player ones.

I also have the "edit tag" option if I right click on a music file and it is the Roxio Tag Editor. Unless you actually use that edit function, if should do no harm. Is there some problem that you are having?

Wonder why I don't get the same screen when I open it? If I navigate to the directory where RxTagEdit8 is and double click the file, nothing happens. The tag program does not open. I've never even paid attention to this before.

No problem really related to this... it's just more of personal annoyance, pet peeve kinda thing. There's probably some setting in some Roxio application to turn the context menu stuff off, but I haven't found it yet.

Now, MyDVD 8 Deluxe really had a problem working with a project I created with MyDVD 8 regular. Program would crash with a error report dialog everytime I tried to edit the chapters of a movie.

I was able to re-create the project from scratch and was able to make chapters within the same movie and could go back and edit them fine. I might do a file comparision between the two project files and see what's different.. weird that it should be that much of difference to cause the software to crash... but that is the main application that got changed between EMC 8 and EMC 8 Deluxe.

I solved it. I got to thinking that it might be some global context menu handler that roxio uses. I found the following registry key: \\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\RXDCExtSvr

After backing up and removing this key.. the Edit Tag context menu item is gone and the PsPad pencil Icon is back next to PsPad where it belongs.

Case closed :)
