Is there any way to selectively hide menu items in Visual Studio 2012? I found this post: Visual Studio 2012 Toolbars but this isn't it what I want.
I would like to hide some of the items like "Architecture" and "Test" etc.

I think you may want to look at Hide Main Menu
After installing this extension, Visual Studio's main menu will collapse when not in use (using the same behavior as Windows Explorer and Internet Explorer). To use the menu, simply press and release the Alt key, or press and release Alt+ to directly show a menu (e.g. Alt+F to show the file menu). The menu bar will automatically hide again once you're finished using it.
To disable this feature after installing, use Tools\Extension Manager to disable or uninstall the extension (of course, you'll have to use Alt+T to show the Tools menu if the extension is enabled).
For selectively hiding the option go to Tools->Customize->Commands and then delete the option which you want.

In Visual Studio 2012: Tools->Customize->Commands. Then select the menu item you don't want and hit Delete.
