Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Shell Extensions go to this location in your registry editor and see is there any folder named "blocked" under shell extensions and inside the folder if you see this key "{e2bf9676-5f8f-435c-97eb-11607a5bedf7}" it is responsible for the change you can delete it and restart to change to windows 11 style

the location may not be same for you and me if that case go manually in registry

hope this helps

hey i dont have any blocked folders under shell extensions, there are only approved and cahed folders there

hey the mistake we made here is directly run the tool if you see the explorer option in the tool there is an option called enable window 10 file explorer that is the reason for the confusion.

Step 1: The way I suggest is to once again open the tool and run the restore defaults and restart the windows mostly this resolves the issue, in my case i ran thisiswin11 tool im not sure that whether you run BloatyNosy or Thisiswin11. Step2: After this many processes starts to run and windows will be bloaty again so I recommend once again run the script and ensure that you untick the option this time.

https://github.com/builtbybel/ThisIsWin11/blob/main/src/TIW11/Modules/OpenTweaks/Assessments/Explorer/FileExplorer.cs I think this is the script that is resposible for the changes
