I've been wondering how folks go about discovering new registry keys in Windows 11 (or 10) like, for example, the Strart_ShowClassicMode key: how did the first person who found that, find it? It's not in the registry already so did they get a tip from someone at Microsoft?
I have tried using Process Monitor, which logs all queries for Registry keys, to see if the system is querying for any interesting keys that don't exist by default, but I'm not finding anything. It doesn't even show Start_ShowClassicMode as something Windows 11 looks for, unless you have already created the key. What's the trick that the pros use to find out about these secret keys?
