Windows 7 - "New txt file" missing from right click menu

Few days back realized that somehow I managed to loose the "New txt file" option in the context menu 8O . To fix this

1. Download the fix file given below. (Use Right-click – Save as option in your browser to download the file.)

2. Unzip the file and extract the .reg file to your desktop or My documents folder.

3. Right-click the REG file and choose Merge or just double click the file. You can also open the Registry Editor and then use the Import option from the File menu to merge the contents of the registry file. Please remember that you need to be an administrator to be able to modify your registry and also the statutory warning that playing with registry may render your OS useless so use at your own risk :D.
