Hello!
I cannot stand the new drop down when I right click on a file. Could you please update windows 11 so we can set the show more option as the default?
Thank you!

Hi Brie,
You can use a small registry hack to revert to the classic context menu if you're not fond of Windows 11's fast context menu.
reg add HKCU\Software\Classes\CLSID\{86ca1aa0-34aa-4e8b-a509-50c905bae2a2}\InprocServer32 /ve /d "" /f

Hello Brie,
The tutorial below will disable the newer "Show more options" context menu to always have it show more by default again.

I totally agree. I use Windows because I don't care for the Mac IOS interface and uselessness. Now they turning Windows into the same useless interface. Same with getting to Task Manager. Why removed the option from the right-click menu, now I have to press 3 keys on my keyboard to get to it. Why the start menu had to change I don't understand either.
I submitted my feedback here. Unacceptable change with no easily discernable way to default to previous behavior.
A further example of Microsoft appeasing the imbeciles to the detriment of anyone capable of using a computer.
