Latest windows update destroyed the old legacy context menu. Not even the terminal fix works.

Anyone know how to change it or do I have to download 3rd party software
>>
Rollback your Windows? Windows keeps your old versions unless you do a /reset base command.
>>
>>110301283
Honestly I'd rather download 3rd party software than hang onto an old version of windows. Fucking indians cant do anything right
>>
>>110301297
I mean this is a recent change. You only have to go back to a Windows version from two months ago I think? It's not like you're rolling back to Windows 10 or something.
>>
I thought the latest trend was everything going back to "native UI"
>>
>>110301305
Yeah, but then what, just don't update windows ever again? Smarter to just download an app to fix this one problem I'm having with windows no?
>>
>>110301322
The new context menu is technically faster. It's hardware accelerated by your GPU like all the Mica windows. Notepad is also the same shit.
>>
>>110301324
You can still get security updates you just defer feature updates. That's the whole point behind LTSC. You don't want a new context menu which is a feature update not a security update.
>>
>>110301276
based. you will own nothing.
>>110301326
>hwaccel
it's just a collection of text laid out vertically. It perceptible delay in opening vs classic one.
>>
>>110301326
does a 100px rectangle with text in it really need "hardware acceleration"
is it really that taxing on the cpu
>>
>>110301346
>>110301350
DWM.exe is a DX12 application
WDDM has existed since Vista. The original DWM.exe was DX10
You guys are super late to the party
>>
>>110301365
none of that answers my question
>>
>>110301370
Windows has been been gpu accelerated for win32 since Vista but you are acting like this notepad stuff is new
>>
>>110301370
Cuz you a stupid jit cocksucker.
>>
>>110301385
I'm not "acting" like anything, I was responding to the post that said the new menu is objectively faster because it is hw accelerated, IMPLYING that the old one wasn't.
>>
>>110301389
>WELL AcKCHUALLY
take it up with the anon who brought up hw accel, in the first place, not me
>>
>>110301395

So you a stupid jit cocksucker, got it.

OP is retarded just system restore back

Better her stop using Windows. NTFS is gay.

this. idk wtf that reply was meant to convey.

oh so a nothingburger
>>
>>110301431
Because you are a stupid ESL?
>>
>>110301276
I guess you gotta wait for a 3rd party fix to happen. The old trick still works on shit like Total Commander and the "Open file" dialogue, but both Windows Explorer and the desktop get the new context menu. Maybe you could undo it with ViVeTool codes.
>>110301336
I'm on LTSC 2024 and I got KB5132061 that ships with this change. Seems like MS will be shipping all future Patch Tuesday additions to LTSC 24H2 channel, for better or worse. They do add genuine improvements with these.

we get it, you want to call everyone stupid, very original and substantive

It's the truth you are fucking stupid.

ok i'll get right on that

Man you Windows guys need to stop being retarded at using computers.

If you can't reverse this you are bad at computers and shouldn't be the "IT guy". Go to stupid question thread.

I like this new context menu
>>
>>110301488
It's faster. If it's slower if you then your PC is trash.

still in W10 :)

I didn't assume that, I assume they are using claude

lol. lmao even

Do people let Windows auto update and then get surprised when shit like this happens
>>
>>110301490
simping for planned obsolescence is wack desu
>>
>>110301512
The minimum GPU for LTSC is a DX10 GPU btw. Same as Vista.
>>
>>110301490
It's slower even on a high-end PC, Ranjit. It's also xboxhueg.
>>
>>110301490
It's a tad bit slower than than the classic one. WinUI is definitely heavier than Win32.
>>
>>110301521
Nah your PC is shit fuck off stupid cunt
>>
>>110301522
If it slower for you then your setup is whack
>Inb4 9800x3d+5090

no it is not

Cuz they fucking retarded.
>>110301276
>>
>>110301476
Yeah I'm not about to go from completing something with one click to suddenly needing two clicks to get the same thing done. How about just making good fucking software instead of this dogshit
>>
>>110301606
No but you don't understand, if you don't like clicking twice instead of once, you're stupid and mommy needs to get rid of your phone or something
>>
>>110301488
>>110301490
It's not even about the speed for me. None of my right click menu apps work with this new version.

usecase of this over iot 21h2?

dism or inplace iso fix
>>
>>110301276
let me guess, the customize menu leads to some equally as useless customization while not actually restoring any of the old functionality.
>>
>>110301987
ding ding ding we have a winner
>>
>>110302006
Also this new context menu isn't backwards compatible with old context menu apps. I have like 4 context menu apps that just don't show up here.
>>
>>110302006
kekkkk

>>110301322
react jeetslop is the native ui now

>>110301326
>The new context menu is technically faster.
Win95 on my 30 year old laptop opens up the context menu faster than Win11 despite the 1000x difference in resources.
>>
>>110301350
>does a 100px rectangle with text in it really need "hardware acceleration"

Vista/Win7/8/10 used the classic win32 API to draw things, hardware acceleration for that has been removed since ages. Just open up services.msc and scroll it a bit to see how janky it is (no vsync, maxes out the CPU). Even some old apps like Total Commander have severe performance issues because the win32 api bottlenecks them.

So I totally get why they want to move to a newer hardware accelerated UI, I just wish they weren't fucking it up so spectacularly.
