Turning off Perforce Windows Explorer Integration
by Frank Kim on Dec.23, 2007, under Perforce
Since I am no longer using Perforce I wanted to turn off the Windows Explorer because somethings I would accidentally select the Perforce option in the right click menu and it would hang for a long time as it tried to reach the Perforce server.
This blog article says that the simplest way to do this is to select Change/Remove Perforce P4Win Components from the Add or Remove Programs Control Panel and then select the Windows Explorer integration for uninstall. When it is done uninstalling a reboot is required.
Another possibly simpler way is to:
- right click any folder
- choose Perforce > Options
- uncheck all check boxes
