After installing 2026-01 Security Update KB5074109 (26200.7623) in 25H2 or 2026-03 Security Update KB5079466 (28000.1719) in 26H1, in Win32 Control Panel -> Network and Internet -> Network Connections (ncpa.cpl), the classic Menu bar can't be invoked. There's nothing occurred while pressing Alt key on keyboard, and also Menu Bar option in Organize - Layout disappeared. The problem is that several options in classic menus such as File - New Incoming connection and Advanced - Operator-Assisted Dialing, Bridge Connections, Remote Access Preferences, Advanced Settings, have not been moved to Settings app yet. Now these menu options can't be accessed.

 

It seems the classic menus in Win32 Control Panel all disappeared and can't be accessed anymore. Features in menu options that have not been moved to Settings app are unable to use. Classic menus in File Explorer and Control Panel all disappeared, including "Always show menus" option in Folder Options.

 

so now how to open New Incoming connection?
