Windows 11 Context Menu Registry Fix

Original: https://www.explainingcomputers.com/sample_code/Win11_Context_Menu_Fix.txt

Open the registry editor (eg by pressing Windows + R and entering regedit)

Navigate to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes

Right-click CLSID and select Key from the menu to create a new key named {86ca1aa0-34aa-4e8b-a509-50c905bae2a2}

Right click the new key and select Key from the menu to create a second new key inside the first, and name this InprocServer32

Expand InprocServer32 and double-click on Default in the right-hand pane.

In the resultant Edit String window, do not change anything and just click on OK.

Close the registry editor and reboot.
