    After upgrading from Windows 10 to Windows 11 you will notice that the company improved the right-click context menu. Due to the use of acrylic material, it looks amazing with the overall modern design of Windows 11.

    Right-click context menu in Windows 11 offers limited options as compared to the one available in Windows 10. When you make a right-click it shows the following context menu with few options:

    To see the full list of options or Windows 10 style context menu users either have to click ‘Show more options’ or use the SHIFT + F10 key combination

    Overall, the improved context menu shows more useable options. In case, the desired option is not available in the list, then they can use the method discussed above to unlock the full right-click context menu.

    There are lots of users who’re complaining about the compact context menu in Windows 11 from the day the first build was rolled out by the company. The majority of users want, full right-click context menu to open up with default settings.
