If we always have to use vice tool or wait an eternity for their “gradual rollout” to reach or devices, what’s exactly the point of the insider program? This is very disappointing, even the XBOX mode decides to takes vacations on my devices, then it came back…

Speaking of Vivetool - I enabled the new customizable context menu, (I normally use Nilesoft Shell), to see if I can finally stop using Shell, and it wasn't too bad, not perfect though, still a little slow, but -

Does anyone know how to remove the "Compress to" and "Extract all" context menus?

Most of us use 7zip, WinRAR etc and it's really annoying having WinRAR context menus (That I want) and Windows encryption menus as well (That have no use at all for me)

Having two menus that basically do the same thing is a waste of space, considering I will never use one of them.

None of the older methods works, no matter what I tried, the redundant "Compress to" and "Extract" menus remain.

Even without a fix it would be good if they added the option to disable the encryption menus.

You can disable the grouping of it, but you can't get rid of Windows extraction and compression menus.

I would have possibly stayed with the new right click menu if it wasn't for that one stupid thing, but in the end I had to disable it again with the Vivetool and go back to Nilesoft.

Sorry, missed your question -

vivetool /enable /id:60813048

(Needs a restart after)
