remove Add to Windows Media Player List from folders

Question

I ran the script below, given in another post How to remove "Add to Windows Media Player list" from context menu, and while it seems to have worked for individual files of the listed file-types, it still appears when right-clicking over a folder, containing, for example WAV or FLAC files, though not for mp3 files.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11.AssocFile.3G2\shell\Enqueue] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11.AssocFile.3GP\shell\Enqueue] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11.AssocFile.ADTS\shell\Enqueue] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11.AssocFile.AIFF\shell\Enqueue] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11.AssocFile.ASF\shell\Enqueue] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11.AssocFile.ASX\shell\Enqueue] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11.AssocFile.AU\shell\Enqueue] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11.AssocFile.AVI\shell\Enqueue] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11.AssocFile.M2TS\shell\Enqueue] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11.AssocFile.m3u\shell\Enqueue] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11.AssocFile.M4A\shell\Enqueue] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11.AssocFile.MIDI\shell\Enqueue] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11.AssocFile.MOV\shell\Enqueue] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11.AssocFile.MP3\shell\Enqueue] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11.AssocFile.MP4\shell\Enqueue] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11.AssocFile.MPEG\shell\Enqueue] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11.AssocFile.TTS\shell\Enqueue] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11.AssocFile.WAV\shell\Enqueue] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11.AssocFile.WAX\shell\Enqueue] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11.AssocFile.wma\shell\Enqueue] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11.AssocFile.WMV\shell\Enqueue] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11.AssocFile.WPL\shell\Enqueue] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11.AssocFile.WVX\shell\Enqueue]

How can I get rid of it for all folders as well?

The topic began on How to remove "Add to Windows Media Player list" from context menu

but it didn't address the issue of context menu when right-clicking on folders.

The following .reg file will remove the context menu item from folders:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SystemFileAssociations\Directory.Audio\shell\Enqueue]

Just in case you want to get the context menu item back again, here's the .reg file to do that:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SystemFileAssociations\Directory.Audio\shell\Enqueue]
@="&Add to Windows Media Player list"
"MUIVerb"=hex(2):40,00,25,00,53,00,79,00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,52,00,6f,00,\
  6f,00,74,00,25,00,5c,00,73,00,79,00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,33,00,32,00,5c,\
  00,75,00,6e,00,72,00,65,00,67,00,6d,00,70,00,32,00,2e,00,65,00,78,00,65,00,\
  2c,00,2d,00,39,00,38,00,30,00,30,00,00,00
