  1. Windows 10 Context Menu Missing New -> New Folder Option


    My context menu New -> New Folder option is missing along with a bunch of other standard options like Text Files.

    I googled and tried a bunch of solutions online and the only solution I got was to add New to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers with default value "{D969A300-E7FF-11d0-A93B-00A0C90F2719}"

    But I still don't have no New Folder option and I have Shortcut twice.

  3. Problem with New Context Menu

    The option to add a new Rich Text File seems to have disappeared from my Context Menu and I'm not sure why.

    I'm not computer savvy, but after a bit of Googling I read how you can add and delete options from the New Context Menu though the Registry Editor. When I went to check it the .rtf folder under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT still has it's ShellNew folder so I'm not
    sure what the issue is or if perhaps there's something wrong with it. I also found a tool to easily enable/disable file types on the New Context Menu, and .rtf is listed along with everything else and checked off as "enabled" but for some reason is not showing
    up, even after I tried disabling and enabling it a couple of times. This is extremely frustrating as that's the file type I use the most.

    Any suggestions as to what the problem is or how to fix it?

  4. Windows 10 Context Menu Missing New -> New Folder Option

    Context item for new folder is missing, also new folder in new edge doesn't work

    I've noticed that i'm missing the ability to create new folder from the context menu, strangely there is still the option to create office documents, and compressed folders, but not a proper folder

    also from within the latest dev version of edge when i download a file and go to select the folder i want to download to, and press the new folder button it doesn't do anything

    I've seen a few suggestions saying about the registry key Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\New but it contains what they're suggesting to add

    i'm running insiders preview of 2004 19041.330
