    I wish there was a way to just right click an item in Device Manager and choose "Do not update the drivers for this device". I like to use an older driver for Realtek audio as that gives me better features with Sound Blaster. When WU installs a newer driver, rolling back doesn't fix it - I have to disconnect from the internet, use DDU to clean Sound Blaster, then the Realtek driver, then reboot, and then install the older driver and Sound Blaster. I don't want to completely disable WU driver updates, because then I miss out on all the other driver updates.

    Nice, I've a feeling that your restoring classic context menus tool may prove very popular. It's very clear from MDL over the past weeks that the new context menus are widely disliked.

    Your tool restores them system wide - right? I've seen another one that only restores them in Explorer.
    Yes it does - nice.

    Can you do anything to restore the classic taskbar?

    Added to the main tweaks/fixes/mods post. Thank you.

    @geepnozeex See my post edit above regarding Defender Switch dialog. Have removed it from main post due to it's dialog being in Russian only. Is there an English language version?

    That link above is also blocked out if I view your post in bbcode, I assume the forum has some type of auto block function. Post back if there's an English language version.


    Fixed in post below.

    Cheers for updating to English version. :good3:

    Added to main tweaks/fixes/mods post.

    Your post has changed to Russian! I (think) it's a forum rule that you need to include an English translation mate.

    A 3rd party company was able to enable drag and drop within 2-3 months while Microsoft themselves have no will to add back drag and drop to windows 11 taskbar speaks volumes of incompetence. Don't give me s**t that adding drag and drop would break something as the taskbar code is entirely new they have less risk of breaking something by adding drag and drop and right click context menu to it. Shame
