Is it possible to remove certain folders from that menu? I never store anything in the documents or downloads or music or pictures or videos folders. The only one I need there is desktop. Is there a way to get rid of the other folders from showing?

-EDIT- I missed half of step 1. This should work now.
Yes you can, but it is not as easy as bigfr0g thinks. Follow these steps for each entry you wish to hide.
THIS CHANGES DEPENDING ON FOLDER
}\PropertyBag into the navigation bar.In place of "THIS CHANGES DEPENDING ON FOLDER" add the corresponding IDs, whichever you want to hide.

Hope this helps. If you ever want them back, follow the same instructions, except set the value to "Show".
