Disable "Show more options" context menu in Windows 11 Tutorial
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...

As for adding something to the context menu, new or old, it would help to know what it is exactly, that you want to add.

Thing is, I don't want the old one. I like the looks of new one more but it's capabilities are limited since most apps haven't gone to the new context menu themselves yet.

What exactly are you trying to add to the new context menu?
Some items are added by programs, some are added by Windows.

Well for 7zip, just reinstalling the program should fix that. If that doesn't fix it, then you will have to use the old context menu.
The same for Notepad++, I would think. Technically that's a 3rd party program.
A lot of things changed with Windows 11. We have tutorials for the things we've figured out so far.
A lot also depends on how you "got" to Windows 11. Via Windows Update or by In-Place Upgrade.
In-Place Upgrade, brings more of your Windows 10 settings, than Windows update does.
I do see 7zip on my Win 11 context menu, but I did an In-Place Upgrade, and I use the old context menus.
I would just uninstall 7zip, then reinstall it. If that doesn't put it on the new context menu... you may not be able to, yet.
Some things are helpful if you inform us of them. Like what build number of Windows 11 you are on.
What your computer specs are.
To get the build number, just type: winver in the Taskbar search box.
The easiest way to find most of your computer specs is to use Speccy, a free program.
