    Explorer context menu new items are missing


    Hi,I am using Windows 11 and this started happening today.When I right click, it shows the explorer right click context menu, which includes New. If I hover over that, it shows a bunch of different office apps to choose from. However, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint is not in that list anymore. So I have to do this manually by opening PowerPoint > New. But weird, other apps like Publisher and Access are still there.Is this a known issue?If so, is there a fix?Thanks in advance!

    :)

    Explorer context menu new items are missing

    Word Context Menu Item Missing

    Hi, I explored creating additional New menu entries some time back, finding office suites other than MS's typically don't create them.

    This is a good overview:
    How to Add Other File Types to the New Item Menu in Windows 10’s File Explorer

    and I've attached what I did with some reg files.

    This may also be of interest:

    Hopefully someone with the same Office suite as yours will compare their registry keys.
