Extra options in context menus in Windows 7

Windows 7 has a lot of hidden extra options in the context menus (the ones you see when you right-click on things). To see them, hold down the Shift key when right-clicking on things. Depending on the menu, you'll see extra options. If you are going to select a sub-menu in a context menu, some of these have extra options too, so keep the Shift key held down when you select one of these.
