We did a while back as well

Apparently, Win 11 managed to make File Browser unstable, so occasionally your right click will stop working when clicking inside a folder; the only quick fix I've found is to just reboot File Browser itself from the task manager. And when I say 'stop working', I mean you'll still be able to right click, but you will be unable to select/use any of the options. Apparently this is a fairly common issue

I don't like Windows 11.

I really like how they made a new right-click menu worse.

One click? Why not 3-5?

Yes. Yes. This is it. The cracks are starting to form. Microsoft's policy of eternal backwards support is starting to go past the event horizon. The whole windows explorer thing has been a mess of jumbled legacy garbage since at least XP. And now it's just breaking? We're entering the technological cool zone

Oh, that explains what was happening. I also regularly get that bug where if I close my lid to sleep the laptop when it's plugged in, it doesn't actually sleep and instead just overheats in my backpack on the drive home.
