<p>Option 2 from the following link worked for me. Option 1 “Always show menus” was not available in my current Win 11 Pro version 22621.675:</p>
<blockquote></blockquote>
<p><strong>Add or Remove File Explorer Menu Bar using REG file</strong></p>
<p>(Contents of REG file for reference) Code:</p>
<pre><code class="lang-auto">Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
"AlwaysShowMenus"=dword:00000000
</code></pre>
<blockquote></blockquote>
<p>1 Create a new .reg file with the above content and save the file to your desktop.</p>
<p>2 Double click/tap on the .reg file to execute it.</p>
<p>3 When prompted, click/tap on Run, Yes (UAC), Yes, and OK to approve.</p>
<p>4 You can now delete the downloaded .reg file.</p>
