OneDrive Context Menu Missing on Windows 11
- Apr 24, 2025
We also had this issue in our environment. For us, it was the following two registry values that blocked the OneDrive context menu:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Appx\AllowDevelopmentWithoutDevLicense
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Appx\AllowAllTrustedAppsAfter deleting these, the Windows Explorer process and OneDrive need to be restarted.
Apparently, this issue also existed back then with Teams, see the following link: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/troubleshoot/teams-administration/fix-new-teams-installation-issues
Just for reference in case others come back here I haven't been able to solve the recent menu disappearances with the usual methods mentioned earlier.
I was able to get my menu back just now following the solution here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/5548428/missing-onedrive-context-menu-items-in-windows-exp
The OneDrive Key was missing from HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\
I added the key and then edit the Default REG_SZ with the CLSID posted: {A3B3D3B0-1B3C-4B3D-8B3C-3B3D3B3D3B3D}
Restarted explorer.exe and the menu was back.
