Restore 'New .rtf file" to menu on desktop of Win 11 finally fixed ! ! ! Wow! Thank you so much! Finally the right click sub menu "New" shows the option "Rich Text Document" ! ! ! You did it ! ! ! As far as I'm concerned the Nobel prize is underway ! ! ! (Even though "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.rtf"...

. so the solution for those who cannot get a working fix for the issue Right click - New - Rich Text Document: choose Right click - New - Text Document and then change New Text Document.txt into New Text Document.rtf of course you first have to install Wordpad (if it is not on your...

to Skeptic Mike: the (first) reg file didn't work

to Ghot: thank you for the Windows 11 Tweaks link, I will definitely study it. I just used Rescuezilla to put the 24H2 image back (my Windows 11 size is 20.628.275.200 bytes), it took 6.1 minutes. I doubt that AOMEI can beat that. (I had serious problems with AOMEI in te past, which is why I...

to Edwin: the Word.RTF.8 tip did not work either I don't have MS Word anyway, so it was to be expected it would fail

to Skeptik Mike: your November 25, 6:33 PM post tips resulted in no change. Now I'm putting the 24H2 image back and I will try your reg file, the first one, from your post 26 nov 2024 12:46 PM. To be continued.

to Skeptik Mike: at the moment I'm putting back an image of 23H2 to the 24H2 machine. I will give it a go with your tips. Thanks in advance. I will come with the results later, after my visit to the dentist and a visit of one of my friends this afternoon. Oops (not): Rescuezilla did it in 8.1...

to GHOT, the three starred guru vip: What a find! That works! Though it is a little step more, it works perfectly (one has to change the name "New Text Document" anyway, so those extra three letters are no problem at all). THANKS a lot! You really did a great find. A fourth star if you can come...

to OAT: first of all: THANKS A LOT ! (I played your video) second: I would LOVE to receive the *.reg file that you used for this. would you be so kind to send it to me at ruudtes at hotmail dot com? this is to make sure I can do what you did, and to be absolutely certain that there is no...

to EDWIN: yes, they open with Wordpad by default yes it is associated with Wordpad (two questions about the same thing ;-) I don't want a right click entry, I want a right click - New entry I know there are a lot of other ways, thanks for pointing them out, Edwin, but I prefer the fastest way.

to OAT thank you for the fresh install you have promised and I'm not the only one who uses that word...

to Glasskuter: you write that I: "throw shade on anyone here" I politely reacted to the OAT comment "You are suffering from confirmation bias" and to the OAT comment "You are either doing something wrong or you cannot follow simple directions, or both". I reacted with this: "I think someone...

to OAT: I think the thing is that I'm on a freshly installed Windows 11 Home system (22 November 2024)(OS build 26100.2314), installed on a completely empty hard disk. I would so very much like to know if you can get the same "right click + new" result on such a setup. I am sure that you won't...

I have done exactly what you wrote, and I followed your directions exactly. I think you can't replicate my issue, for you start without installing the latest Windows 11 24h2.
