I am using windows 11 and I don't like the new file explorer context menu. So, I decided to bring back the old context menu using a registry hack and now I am unable to see the Mp3 tag option in the old context menu.

I hope this issue gets fixed as soon as possible. Thanks!

Please see this entry from the FAQ

> Right-click context menu is missing on Windows 11 Assuming you've already restarted explorer.exe via the right-click context menu in Task Manager (or have rebooted Windows), this is happening sometimes on Windows 11 for reasons which I still trying to find out. What might help in those cases and when the classic context menu is preferred, is to manually register the shell extension from a command prompt with admin rights: cd \<path to Mp3tag installation\> regsvr32 Mp3tagShell.dll
