v3.24 does not install Explorer context menu, even though the installer says it does. I rely on this a lot and hope this can be corrected.

See the FAQs on this problem:

> 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

Thanks for the quick reply. I thought i saw something about it elsewhere in the forum, but was a bit confused. This is certainly not a big deal. 😀 Many thanks!
