Integrated into win11's new context menu?

The menu items are now listed in the secondary menu, below the show more options, can they be displayed directly in the new context menu?

I have plans for that, but not in the near future because I prefer working on mpv.net and because it will be much work because in C++ I cannot work very fast.

Meanwhile, you can take a look at:

I think the new menu has generally worse usability compared to the old menu, for various reasons. The old menu is generally better in my opinion and because of that I stay with the old menu unless MS removes the possibility of using the old menu. Not everything that is new is automatically better.

What ruins it:

  1. Transparency
  2. The small copy/paste buttons, there is nothing wrong with the old copy/paste menu items.
  3. It changes shape after startup, slow performance.
  4. ContextMenuForWindows11 lacks useful features compared to Open with++.
