What is the difference between ShellExView and ShellMenuView?

The ShellExView utility displays the details of shell extensions installed on your computer, and allows you to easily disable and enable each shell extension.

Source ShellExView - Shell Extension Manager For Windows

ShellMenuView is a small utility that displays the list of static menu items that appeared in the context menu when you right-click a file/folder on Windows Explorer, and allows you to easily disable unwanted menu items.

A shell extension is an in-process server that implements some interfaces that handle the communication with Explorer.

There are many types of shell extensions, each type being invoked when different events happen. Here are a few of the more common types, and the situations in which they are invoked:
