<![CDATA[Duplicate context menu entries]]>About 6 months ago, after a NP++ update, I started seeing TWO context menu entries for “Edit with Notepad++”:

I just uninstalled and reinstalled the most recent NP++ and they’re back.

How do I get back to having a single entry in the main Explorer context menu? My OS is Win11 23H2.

[yes, I know I should probably move up to a more recent build, but that’s going to be an all-day affair given I have to image the boot disk for disaster recovery given Microsoft’s history with major updates… because having to rebuild my system from scratch is about 12-16 hours work]

Side question: I searched the registry, where Win10 stored context menu items, but can’t find the items now displayed in the Win11 primary menu… I assume they’re using a different mechanism. Where is this configuration stored?
