How to Restore the Default Windows 11 Context Menu

If you change your mind and want to use the default context menu that Microsoft intended with Windows 11, you can either run “undo_win11_classic_context_menu.reg” (found in the ZIP file we provided), or run Regedit again and remove 

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\CLSID\{86ca1aa0-34aa-4e8b-a509-50c905bae2a2}\InprocServer32 . Then restart your PC. When you log back in, the default context menu will be back.

This registry hack was working as of Windows 11’s initial release in October 2021. In the future, it’s possible that Microsoft will disable this registry hack with an update. Since application developers can add options to the new Windows 11 context menu, this hack may become less necessary over time as apps get updated to support Windows 11. Until then, enjoy your classic context menu!
