Personalization Disable "Show more options" context menu in Windows 11


  • Staff
Show_more_options_banner.png

This tutorial will show you how to enable or disable having to click on "Show more options" to see the full context menu for your account or all users in Windows 11.

When you right click on an item in Windows 11, you will see a new modern condensed context menu with Show more options (Shift+F10) at the bottom you have to click on to see all available options.

Reference:

If you use the context menu a lot, then you will most likely find having to click on Show more options annoying anytime you need more options.

Pressing the Shift + F10 keys while having something selected will open the "Show more options" context menu for that item.

Starting with Windows 11 build 22572, you can now also press Shift + right click in File Explorer and the Desktop to be the same as click/tap on the “Show more options” context menu item.

Starting with Windows 11 build 26058 (Canary and Dev), to make it easier to use the File Explorer context menu, labels have been added to previously unlabeled actions such as cut, copy, paste, rename, share, and delete.

If you like, you can disable this condensed Show more options context menu to always have it open too see the full context menu again when you right click on an item.

Hello mate, :)

It's still working for me in the Dev build 22598.

I only had to restart the explorer process to apply.
Oops, brain not in gear.

I interpreted "enable 'show more options'" as meaning show all the options, when it means "enable the context item you have to press to see more options.".

So I had to DISABLE more options LOL.

All is fine now - thanks.

It sounds like the command may not have been entered correctly. Double check using option 2 below.

To clarify, this is the show more section. I want this as the main only section as in Windows 10. I use it a hell of a lot and ok, its a cosmetic trivial click, but I would prefer it. Why is everything I get involved in a pain in your ass :wink:

You would use step 3 in option 1 for that menu all the time.

But, in pictures, the image I showed above, does come up. I suppose it will have to be left as it is, at least I can work on images. Thanks for all your hard work Brink, AGAIN.

Illiteracy is rife in the computing world as well as the media. Its amazing how many people cannot spell. Look at the scrolling headlines on the News, bad spelling abounds. My own Virgin Media programming captions, pathetic spelling. (Programming is correctly spelt by the way) :wink:

Different strokes for different folks, I guess. First option didn't work for me on my own ver of Win-11,
But, the second option of manually entering the CMD, worked like a champ, on two different PC's.
Thank you Shawn!

Let me add my thanks on this, Shawn. After applying this, right click does indeed give the long list of actions.

One question, though. "Compress to Zip" is no longer displayed on the context menu, while it was originally included on the first-level context menu. For my simple needs, I've been happy with the built-in Zip. Is there a way to add it back into the context menu?

Hello Buddy, and welcome. :alien:

You should be able to use Send to > Compressed (zipped) folder instead like in option two below.

Like a few others, I had several false starts using the .reg scripts, till I finally got myself on the right track.

But recently, when I downloaded and installed the Windows Tweaking Utility, "Winaero Tweaker" I found it has a One Click option to install that full Context Menu. Much simpler for the ones not familiar with .reg scripts or Registry Edits.

There are several things in that little program that change things in Windows 11, that can be nearly impossible doing it manually.
It's worth checking in to. Eh?

A piece of unsolicited advice: Set just one new setting at a time, then close the program and check your new setting’s performance results.

If you change multiple settings at a time, you can’t be sure which one of your changes is responsible for what you see.
