Autoruns does not search for menu handlers in all locations

Hello.

I came up with a problem with possibility to disable an explorer menu handler for one of my apps.

The app is called "chomikbox" - here is the link do download: https://chomikuj.pl/chomikbox.
It's an app to download files from the service "chomikuj.pl".

Anyway, I will attach some files with screen captures.
It shows locations (look at the status bar of Regedit app in three of 4 files, in the fourth one there is a short path so it shows where it is in the tree) in each file separately, that do not appear in Autoruns.
In effect I could not find "chomikbox" app handlers to disable or remove.

My OS is Windows7 Enterprise SP1 32Bit.

Can You help me with that using Atoruns apps ?

    Those are not Menu handlers, are just Shell verb.
    To understand the difference, please, have a look at this document and all the referenced:
    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/shell/launch

    Autoruns show you the registered Context Menu Handler for an app and not the registered standard verb it supports, which is what yo are showing.
    So, IMO Autoruns stand correct.

    Thanks
