re-order windows explorer context menu

Something I've pondered for a long time, and never actually gotten around to looking into:

How the $%#! does Windows Explorer decide what order to put the context menu items in? Does anyone know how to re-order it?

As far as I can tell, it's completely willy-nilly. It even seems to change from right-click to right-click. (Right-click on a few different folders. You'll see the same menu items, but sometimes the order will change for no apparent reason.)

Holy *($#... someone spelled my nick correctly. Will wonders never cease. Clearly the sign of an advanced intelligence.

Probably a robot.

Re: re-order windows explorer context menu

I just installed this program on Windows 7 x86, and I can't seem to figure out how to reorder the context menu items. Does it only work on Vista/XP?
