I don't think they are part of 11 as I haven't got them, You use WinRar by the look of it. It may be obvious but have you been into WinRar settings and turned them off in the context menu setting.

Yes, I use 7zip and get some context menu options for it - but I can choose which ones can appear or not by going into the options in 7zip settings so I guess it would be similar with other programs.

the "extract all" is a default windows 11 entry. i tried modding the reg like in windows 10 but i did not work. winaerotweaker works when you remove it under 'remove default entries'

I would love to remove the "Compress to Zip file" menu item. Mostly because when I click it, nothing happens. No zip gets created. I was able to remove the extract all. If I figure out a tweak I'll post it here.

as for me, I configured WinRAR to stay on CONTEXT MENU to extract all type of compressed archives, for ZIP files the menu EXTRACT ALL will still remain there, addtionally WinRAR menu will also appear to ease my operation for ZIP, RAR and ISO formats .. some large ISO and DAA filetypes, I will use PowerISO manually for compression & extraction ..​

    Still assembled, still runs. Haven't turned it on for 13 years?
get the program ShellMenuView that will sort them all out or ShellMenuNew for the new items ( it's a bit limited now )
