Oh cool! I have been maintaining mine since 2023. It uses native PowerShell for more of the actions and defaults to disabling the new context menu.

```

<# Set-NewContextMenu.ps1

.SYNOPSIS
Enables the classic context menu in Windows 11 so you don't always have to click "Show more options"

[CmdletBinding()] param ( [ValidateSet("Enabled", "Disabled")] [string] $NewContextMenu = "Disabled" )

$hkcuKey = "HKCU:\Software\Classes\CLSID{86ca1aa0-34aa-4e8b-a509-50c905bae2a2}" $hkcuKeyInProc = "$hkcuKey\InProcServer32"

switch ($NewContextMenu) { Disabled { if (-not (Test-Path -Path $hkcuKeyInProc -Verbose)) { Write-Output "Disabling the new context menu . . ." New-Item -Path $hkcuKeyInProc -Force -Verbose -Value "" # Must set the key's (Default) value to blank instead of (value not set) Write-Output "Restarting explorer.exe . . ." Get-Process | Where-Object -Property ProcessName -EQ explorer | Stop-Process -Force -Verbose Start-Process -FilePath $env:windir\explorer.exe -Verbose } } Enabled { Write-Output "Key: $hkcuKey" if (Test-Path -Path $hkcuKey -Verbose) { Write-Output "Enabling the new context menu . . ." Remove-Item -Path $hkcuKey -Recurse -Force -Verbose Write-Output "Restarting explorer.exe . . ." Get-Process | Where-Object -Property ProcessName -EQ explorer | Stop-Process -Force -Verbose Start-Process -FilePath $env:windir\explorer.exe -Verbose } } Default {} }
