The Windows 11 Pro File Explorer right click context menu is missing OneDrive View Online and OneDrive Version History?

The context menu does list the following...

Share

Always keep on this device

Free up space.

    I found the solution.

    Windows 11 foolishly hides everything under "show more" in the context menu.

    To get the old context menu back without the "Show More" you can use techniques here:

    This was finally solved by our corporate admins launching a remote (re)install of OneDrive on my machine.

    I have no idea if this was due to a problem when upgrading from Win10 to 11 or some other cause.

    EDIT:

    Aaand the problem is back again of its own accord.

    I encountered this issue today.

    I've recently switched from Windows 10 to 11, and I'm used to navigating sharepoint folders with internet explorer (integration via OneDrive sync client).
    I often use the option to see a SharePoint-file history from windows explorer, and to open a directory in Sharepoint Online (browser).

    However both options are missing from the context menu in Windows 11.

    How can I get back those options?

    Thanks!

    Agustín.
