OK everyone. My PC reverted on its own back to the windows 11 ribbon when I had the reg fix that worked with 22H2 for over a month. Windows updated and now the reg fix doesn't work any more. Its in there but no more working.. So F'd UP!!!!
Restoring Windows 10 Ribbon on Win 11
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

Edit - It worked for a day and now my File Explorer ribbon is there but most of the buttons are grayed out. So they are sending updates to prevent us from using the old explorer??? What the heck Microsoft!!
