It is very simple and takes File explorer back to the Windows 10 version.

Is there a way to get the windows slides show back in W11? I used it all the time and its gone. I don't mean the lock screen one, that's no good. I have left it too late to revert to W10 regretfully

How to change the windows file explorer in Windows 11 to look like windows 10
this was because when I upgraded to Windows 11, the slideshow option was no longer there
run CMD as administrator
to change to old style to have the slideshow option
reg.exe add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Shell Extensions\Blocked" /v "{e2bf9676-5f8f-435c-97eb-11607a5bedf7}" /t REG_SZ
to restore to the new windows 11 view
reg.exe delete "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Shell Extensions\Blocked" /f

Yes, I miss the old SlideShow option too. Looking for other ways to do this now in Windows 11.
Also, having used this now, it not only recovers the Windows 10 slideshow functionality I was looking for but speeds everything up back to the performance that was lost. Perfect solution to the problem I originally posted. Thank you.
