1 I have just updated my 21H2 to 22H2 where I cannot re-install Windows 10 File explorer Ribbon which was possible earlier with Win 11 21H2. How can I effect this?

or

Are the Copy to, Move to options available on Win 10 still available on Win 11 Pro? If available how can I operate them?

3 A similar case with theVideo playing and Slide show options

I look forward to a full explanation and demonstration regarding these

    Thank you, it did work to revert the Explorer context menu. I would also like to revert the Explorer ribbon. Is there a script to do that?

    Currently, as of Windows 11 build 22621.1344, it appears that installing StartAllBack, is the only viable option to go back to the Windows 10 style ribbon in Explorer.

    Same problem here. Latest W11 update trashed the Explorer context menu fix. What in hell are the MSFT Explorer geeks doing to us??? Do they thi k no one ever renames a file, for example??? Just make W11 more unuseful? Maybe this is layoff revenge???

    I just have my windows 11 automatically updated and old w10 ribbon has disappeared (earlier updates never affected w10 ribbon). I went back to regedit as you said. Blocked folder was already there but there was no file {e2bf9676-5f8f-435c-97eb-11607a5bedf7} that I created before (it was some other file unknown to me)

    I added back {e2bf9676-5f8f-435c-97eb-11607a5bedf7} as instructed (see photo) but now it is not working anymore.

    Please help me remove this horrible w11 explorer and restore my w10 explorer.

    Thanks

    I just have my windows 11 automatically updated and old w10 ribbon has disappeared (earlier updates never affected w10 ribbon). I went back to regedit as on procedure from page 1. Blocked folder was already there but there was no file {e2bf9676-5f8f-435c-97eb-11607a5bedf7} that I created before (it was some other file unknown to me)

    I added back {e2bf9676-5f8f-435c-97eb-11607a5bedf7} as instructed but now it is not working anymore.

    Please help me remove this horrible w11 explorer BSand restore my w10 explorer.
