Windows 11 Restore full menu on right click

By default, Windows 11 hides all the available options from the right-click menu. If you want to see each of them, you have to click “Show more options.” Some options, like “Print” and “Create shortcut,” are always missing, and links to open a file in a specific program are at the bottom rather than at the top of the list of options.

Below, you can see the default context menu that appears when you right-click on a file in Windows 11.

The options vary depending on what you right-click on and what you have installed, but you always get a more comprehensive list with the full context menu.

To have the full context menu like the one in Windows 10, open Regedit.
To use the Registry Editor, type regedit in Windows Search and click the first result.

When regedit opens, follow the path..

HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Classes \ CLSID

Next, create a new registry key named {86ca1aa0-34aa-4e8b-a509-50c905bae2a2} under the CLSID. This is done by right-clicking on the CLSID and selecting New->Key. Then, rename the folder it creates to {86ca1aa0-34aa-4e8b-a509-50c905bae2a2}.

Then create another new key under {86ca1aa0-34aa-4e8b-a509-50c905bae2a2} and name it InprocServer32. Then open the default value in InprocServer32, set it to blank, and click OK.

As always with Registry changes, you will need to close the Registry and then restart your computer (or log off and on) to see the changes.

Although the press releases will range from very select to rare, I said I'd pass...because sometimes the editors hide.
