Right click Search Everything context menu item Windows 11

Post by void »

To install the Search Everything... context menu item:
  • In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the General tab on the left.
  • Check Show Search Everything folder context menu item.
  • Click OK.

Right click a folder and under Show more options, click Search Everything....



To show the classic context menu (so you don't need to click Show more options first):
  • From the Start menu, search for:
    regedit
  • Right click Registry Editor and click Run as administrator.
  • Create the following key:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\CLSID\{86ca1aa0-34aa-4e8b-a509-50c905bae2a2}
  • Create the following key:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\CLSID\{86ca1aa0-34aa-4e8b-a509-50c905bae2a2}\InprocServer32
  • Restart your PC.
