OK , In case someone else has the same issue let me get back here one last time and share the final results:

After checking the files one by one I finally realized that the file causing trouble was ContextMenuIExplorerCommandShim.dll
So I put back all other dll's in the folder and only removed this one. For the other files all you need to do is remove context entries with Autoruns.

Good to hear!

I ran into the same problem. Just want to add my 2 cents here.

First of all, why this item exists in the windows 11 context menu, is because adobe registered their app as an Win32 app and used the Iexplorercommand function to add context menu items. More on that here :

Integrate with the Windows 11 Context Menu · Issue #127365 · microsoft/vscode

The new Windows 11 context menu uses IExplorerCommand + app identity for app integration. Identity is established for unpackaged Win32 like VS Code using Sparse Manifests. A sample can be found her...

Creating Shortcut Menu Handlers - Win32 apps

Shortcut menu handlers, also known as context menu handlers or verb handlers, are a type of file type handler. Like all such handlers, they are in-process Component Object Model (COM) objects implemented as DLLs.

docs.microsoft.com

It is handled in a different place in the registry:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\PackagedCom\Package\AdobeAcrobatDCCoreApp_your_adobe_version\Class\random numbers.
Just edit the value of Dllpath, and you are good to go. No need to delete anything.

No need to remove any file, just use this registry:

Code:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Shell Extensions\Blocked]
"{3282E233-C5D3-4533-9B25-44B8AAAFACFA}"=""
