I did it so long ago, so I’m not quite sure it was this. A quick google gave me this: https://windowsreport.com/windows-11-right-click-show-all-op...

There are a few things out there, but I always trust a good ol’ registry hack over a 3rd party exe.

Thank you so much for this. I never even thought to look for a way to change it back, I thought I was stuck with this annoyance forever.

Going forward, when I hear the critique that Linux "has too many things to customize," I am going to point people at these comments. I am so glad that I got off this rollercoaster.

Completely agree with you and Linux is great for my home computer, but for some of us Windows at work is an unwavering reality.

I had it worse, Mac at work was an unwavering reality (Intune has since come to Ubuntu LTS which, while utter shite, is still better than MacOS). Apart from taking all direction from the marketing department, at least Windows is functionally competent. It could be worse - trust me.

Yea, there are many things in windows that you adjust (hack) in the registry, but there are many things that you cannot. There’s also no guarantee that when you make a mod like this that it will last forever. You’re at the whim of MS and any single update could be a reckoning.
