I would say no.

Something like that would be coded either in explorer.exe or something like shell32.dll.

Thanks. &nbsp;I knew this could be done via the registry change, but when I did it earlier it didn't work. &nbsp;I guess I had a typo or something.<br />

If it weren't for the stupid icons instead of words I wouldn't mind the new context menus, but seriously MS just made things more screwed up than helping. &nbsp;A user already needs to understand English for the menus anyway so they're not doing us any favors with mixing graphics and words. &nbsp;Just making Windows harder to use. &nbsp;A real collection of genius morons.

right click and select more options if you want to see the cut/copy/paste in the system language. Note: not everyone reads English. CTRL keys still work and if you hover over the icon you will see the letters in the popup in the system language.

Need fix for MS changes to popup menus

This topic area includes legacy versions of Windows prior to Windows 2000: Windows 3/3.1, Windows 95 and Windows 98, plus any other Windows-related versions including Windows Mobile.

Windows OS

Windows 11 is a major version of the Windows NT operating system developed by Microsoft that was announced on June 24, 2021, and is the successor to Windows 10, which was released in 2015. 

Windows 11 was released to the public on October 5, 2021, as a free upgrade via Windows Update and Windows 11 Installation Assistant on eligible devices running Windows 10.

Windows 11 features major changes to the Windows shell influenced by the canceled Windows 10X, including a redesigned Start menu, the replacement of its "live tiles" with a separate "Widgets" panel on the taskbar, the ability to create tiled sets of windows that can be minimized and restored from the taskbar as a group, Microsoft Teams being integrated into the taskbar, and new gaming technologies inherited from Xbox Series X and Series S such as Auto HDR and DirectStorage on compatible hardware. Internet Explorer (IE) has been replaced by the Blink engine-based Microsoft Edge, while IE's core is retained for Edge's IE mode, and Microsoft Teams is integrated into the Windows shell. Microsoft also announced plans to allow more flexibility in software that can be distributed via Microsoft Store.
