Play/ Play All music folder option in win 11 is missing I need to highlight the media and right click to play the music, is it one of the win 11 feature to not have that option, or just a one of the win 11 errors.

    After I select them all, then I have to double click. In the old version, a menu for play music would appear but that no longer occurs. Why did they change this? There is absolutely no reason to change it. Stupid geeks; they are brain dead.

    Hi Nightbus,

    Please try the REG file in the following article.

    Add “Play All” Right-Click Menu for Music and Video Files in Windows 11:

    (An undo REG file is also included if you want to remove the tweak later.)

    Right-click on an audio file, click Show more options, and click Play all.

    Tested in Windows 11 22H2 OS build 22621.2070.

    I can't believe this win 11. It's gone backwards to being almost rubbish. How fo i play my selected highlighted mp4? Why doesn't it work with the ease of win10?! So many quick and easy processes have now become time wasting dramas. Not at all happy. We've used windows since version 3 & 3.1, xp etc and not apple because it's always, up to now, been very user friendly, but not now. This is even worse than the vista days. Sad

    Hard to believe you went back on this, same thing with Snipping tool which is harder to use than Windows 10.

    Not sure what kind of QA you follow before launching a new version, upgrades are supposed to be better versions, not inferior.

    Hope you can correct his soon, very disappointed. Ben
