Classic Context Menu crashes Shell #352

I was following the guide at Installation#Keys and saw that it was possible to still call the classic context menu by holding CTRL + WIN. Sadly this results in Shell (apparently) crashing (or is this an intentional "one way" toggle?). After pressing that combination the classic context menu pre Windows 11 shows up and every right-click after that brings up the modern context menu of Windows 11. No way of bringing back the Shell context menu, except by restarting Windows Explorer.

Even happens on a brand new installation with no changes made to any configuration files.

Installed via winget. Version 1.9.0. Running on Windows 11 10.0.22621.2428 as well as 10.0.22621.2283.

To activate the Shell menu after using the Modern Windows menu, you must restart Explorer
