    context menu "open with" freezes all explorer and no icon update

    I had several symptoms:

    1. "open with" in the context menu would freeze teh context menu and all explorer processes; I could only use the task manager to restart explorer
    2. in explorer, a folder with jpg images usually would show the image with "large icon" and bigger, but nothing would show but the default icon
    3. folders content icon would not be updated and show an empty folder (while it is not empty)

    Context Menu - Open With (Windows Suggested List)

    OS: Windows 10 Pro x64 22H2 Diagram 'A' shows Windows' suggested programs Diagram 'B' shows the extended list I have been trying to edit the context menu's "Open with" list of Windows' suggested programs for the .mp3 extension. I'm not talking about the extended list, but rather the programs that first appear 'before' the "choose another app" option. If you look at Diagram 'A' you will see the preliminary list generated by Windows, this is the list I am looking to modify. I have an .mp3 editor named Goldwave that I use for editing audio files, however, I do not want to change the preliminary program Windows uses to open .mp3s. My .mp3s should remain assigned to Winamp Player. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    File Explorer Context Menu

    Changes to the File Explorer context menu in Windows 11 have made it more inconvenient for me to use compared with Windows 10. I use "New Folder" frequently and this is now 2-clicks away, in favour of a list of commands I never use. Is there a way to change way this context menu displays?
