Windows Context Menu and Show More Options

I dislike the new “Show More Options” contextual menu feature in Windows 11 – and would prefer to have all of my context menus available from the get-go without having to click onto “Show More Options”.

To disable this and go back to the old-style, you can use this command from and Administrator command prompt:

reg.exe add "HKCU\Software\Classes\CLSID\{86ca1aa0-34aa-4e8b-a509-50c905bae2a2}\InprocServer32" /f /ve

To go back, you can use:

reg.exe delete "HKCU\Software\Classes\CLSID\{86ca1aa0-34aa-4e8b-a509-50c905bae2a2}" /f
