hiding the setup.ini and tlbdata.xml files

Sometimes I have toolbars that display, as menus, other toolbars. Those menus then display the setup.ini and tlbdata.xml files, as if they were choices on the menu.

How do I stop menus from displaying these files?

Generally the setup.ini and tlbdata.xml are the hidden files. You can disable to show the hidden files in the TLB Settings->General options->Show Hidden Files.

Also you can use the filters: right-click the menu->Customize menu/submenu->Filters.

Or just hide the files one time.
