Winrar: Cleanup context menu

A default Winrar installation adds a large number of items to the explorer context menu.

Winrar flat context menu

As you can see, the Winrar items are in a flat format. Cut, copy et al. have been pushed way down the list. Switching to a cascading format will shrink the Menu to a more reasonable height. Cascading format means a sub-menu for Winrar items.
