Windows 10: MS Word e.g. is no longer available in the Win 10 context menu?

Maybe someone has an idea where the error could be and how to fix it. I don't know these errors with Word or haven't had it in this form yet.

I don't see any Word in the context menu (right click > New) and I have no idea why or how. The error occurred from one day to the next and I can't seem to find the optimal one in the registry.

I then installed LibreOffice and the text entry was there but disappeared now ... but Exel or Powerpoint are still available. I have no idea what I can do because it would be nice if it would work as usual again.

Use Windows 10 - 64bit - Version 1903 (v1909 would be downloadable)
All this on a Huawei Matebook D14

Would be great if someone had a solution.

windows 10 desktop icon context menus

Hi Ramon,

In reply to your questions:

• Asus, not sure of model - 64 bit desktop system, Asus motherboard, Intel E5300 dual-core @ 2.6 GHz, 8 Gb RAM, 600 Gb disk (<80% full).
• No error messages at all.
• None of the desktop shortcuts (icons) launch their apps, including old original shortcuts and newer ones. (In other words, all icons' context menus misbehave the same way.)
• No changes or custom mods... off-the-shelf prebuilt system, stock Windows install. Strictly used for home office functions - no gaming or external hardware hung off the PC.

Some additional points:

• Note that the Win-X context menu also mostly not working - none of the utilities launch from the choices on the upper 75% of the menu, only system functions (Run, Shutdown, etc.) at the bottom.
• Also note that context menus work normally elsewhere in the system: like inside File Explorer, and inside the Start Menu.
• Not aware of any other issues anywhere in my system. Applications run promptly and at normal speed, no unusual hangs or error pop-ups. (BTW, Windows tablet mode is OFF - I checked.)
• Windows 10 was an upgrade directly from Windows 7.
• At that time everything worked, including all the desktop shortcut context menus and Win-X.
• The context menus on the desktop stopped functioning after the Anniversary update... now shortcuts only launch on double-click from mouse.
• All additional MS updates and patches since that time have successfully installed.

Thanks for your help.
