    Hi! Since I upgraded to Win11/64, I find that accessing files from Explorer sometimes requires an extra step: a menu pops up with just a few options, and most options require me to click "Other Options" first. I really don't like this. :( I want to either skip this step or add options to the mentioned menu. How do I do that?

    I'm fairly new to W11 and it does seem that many simple tasks take an extra click or two. I'm hoping later builds will fix the new and often completely unnecessary frustrations.

    That said MajorGeeks has a bunch of tweaks you can look through to "fix" some of the changes in W11. MajorGeeks Windows Tweaks

    I think this is the one you are looking for. Restore the Windows 10 Context Menu in Windows 11. I tried it and went back to the new context menu because there was a program I use often not showing up.
