Is it reproducible? Yes

If yes, what steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open Programs and Features Control Panel, or Administrative tools.. well any 
control panel that has a band bar displayed
2.
3.

I should see Organize, Uninstall, Repair depending on the particular apps 
installs. Instead I see all my fast folders

If you enable the option to remove additional folder band buttons, 7plus 
disables these ones in the registry by renaming the keys:

Windows.Burn
Windows.Organize
Windows.IncludeInLibrary
Windows.NewFolder
Windows.Share
Windows.SlideShow

I don't think any others should be affected. If you disable this setting do you 
see uninstall/repair buttons?

This buttons are globally disabled in the key 
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\ and 
subkeys. While it would be possible to some extent to do this for some folders 
only I'm not sure if this is practical.

when Integrate Fast Folders in enabled I see them with 'upload' 'new text file' 
and then my various fast folders listed.  They are all mixed in together. They 
don't actually do anything when clicked and I don't think there would be any 
reason for these to be there.

Is there any way you could at least not show these in the bar if it's a .cpl ??

I just investigated and I don't think it is possible to specifically include 
the software uninstallation page. 7plus depends on folder types in the registry 
which are used by Explorer, but it does not provide a type which is specific 
for this page it seems. There are types for the "All control panel items" and 
"Category" pages, but they don't affect the software uninstallation page and in 
those views no bars show up anyway.

I think it can be fixed by adding exclusions to the button placement by window 
title: all Control Panel applets that open in an explorer window have "Control 
Panel\" as the beginning of the window title.

This is not possible unfortunately. These buttons are adding through special 
keys in the registry. 7plus doesn't control the rendering directly. It just 
tells Explorer that it should add some buttons that run a specific command 
line. There aren't too many customization options available there. Setting 
these values dynamically after each path change does not work because it is too 
slow (takes a few seconds to update, many keys need to be changed).

Hi, 

I think this is possible.

Can you confirm the GUID of the (control panel) commandStore bar in question?

(The reason I say this, and ask this, is I've just deleted mine)

I'm not sure if there is a single one for the software applet or the whole 
control panel, but I'll try to look it up later.
