Restore Old Right-click Context Menu In Windows 11​

Starting with Windows 11, the context menu in the File Explorer is refreshed, which is compact and is based on Modern design. However, the refreshed context menu shows fewer items compared to the Legacy Context menu. This article discusses how to restore the Legacy Context menu in Windows 11, showing up by default.​

​

You can show the Legacy Right Click Context menu by clicking Show more options at the end of the list or pressing Shift+F10. If you want it by default, you need to add a registry entry below so that every time you right-click a File or Folder, it shows the Legacy Context menu by default.​
