The items I use most frequently are copy, cut, paste, scan with AV, properties, delete; but they are preceded by others.
This often requires me to scroll down for the ones I want.
On my Win11 laptop I have to click on "show more options" almost always.
It strikes me that someone somewhere (student in college, programming fan, retired MS worker etc.) should have produced
some software to do the editing.
Does anybody know of one?

I have this as a note filed away. It should work.

How to Restore the Old Context Menu in Windows 11
To bring the Windows 10 context menu back to Windows 11, you must tweak your Registry settings. More specifically, you need to add a new InprocServer32 key under the CLSID class.
1. Navigate to Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\CLASSES\CLSID.
2. Create new key {86ca1aa0-34aa-4e8b-a509-50c905bae2a2}.
3. Right-click on the key you just created and select New > Key again.
4. Name the new key InprocServer32.
5. Double-click the Default key under InprocServer32.
6. Close the Default key without editing anything.
7. Exit the Registry Editor and restart your computer.
When you right-click on your desktop, the classic Windows 10 context menu should
be visible on the screen. Keep in mind that you need to restart your computer to
apply the changes.
