My goodness, MS is making it hard liking 11, I understand they want cleaner experience, yet for those of us wanting the complete menu without two clicks, the "clean look" is brutal.
I wouldn't mind at all if they gave us an option to order right click, but they don't, and I suppose you can through the registry, but why, just give the option.
Anyway, open powershill or cmd, I did this without administration elevation.
Copy this, paste into your prompt, restart explorer, you should have your right click back
Ps, the "reg add" works like double clicking a reg file
To go back to 11's right click if you don't want the complete list;
Now you probably have to restart explorer, you don't have to do a full restart;
Open a file, that should bring explorer up to the top when you open task manager.
Highlight explorer, then in the bottom right it says restart, go ahead, it seems they've deprecated ending the explorer process in place is restart.
If you want the complete right click, do this before MS removes the reg function, your right click will be back.
Sadly, MSs removed the ability to ungroup taskbar icons through a reg hack and they might remove this ability too, so get this while you can
