Make a backup of your registry before modifying keys. Open “Registry Editor”, click Computer, then Export.

This is the key to add to get your old style right click menu back. So add this key, then reboot.

Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\CLSID
{86ca1aa0-34aa-4e8b-a509-50c905bae2a2}
InprocServer32

This is the key to modify if you want to add/remove things from the right click menu. Add new keys under shell that point to programs you want to call quickly.

Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell

  • Reboot or Restart Windows Explorer from Task Manager
