Windows 10: How do I remove Dropbox and Adobe Acrobat from the Context Menu?

I want to remove Dropbox and Adobe Acrobat from adding options to my context menu. I want a simple and clean context menu that is free of clutter. Can anyone help me with this? I do think that Microsoft should have an easy solution to this without having to edit the Registry Editor.
