It can't be removed right now. We're tracking a workitem to only show it when SHIFT is held down.

We're not going to add the ability to delete it entirely. Sorry.

/dup #6113

To remove this manually, open regedit, go to the folder \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Shell Extensions\Blocked (you may have to create the Blocked key) then add a string value on the right with the name {9F156763-7844-4DC4-B2B1-901F640F5155} and the value WindowsTerminal
Then restart Explorer.

Bookmark the folder if you're likely to want to come back and re-enable the menu item when they add the option to only show it on holding shift

To remove this manually, open regedit, go to the folder [...]

Nice, I already added my own shortcut on shift only, so this removed the duplicate.

I use this registry hack in combination with https://github.com/BroJenuel/Explorer-Context-Menu-Integration-for-windows-terminal to address issues with Windows Terminal not being able to properly retain the CWD when opening new tabs and panes (#8933).

I think this is better than the official solution:

@vitaminj Unfortunately that doesn't work for 'Open in Windows Terminal Preview'. Any idea of the correct CLSID for that?

@pundoo it seems to be {02DB545A-3E20-46DE-83A5-1329B1E88B6B} for the preview version (you can use any string for the value but WindowsTerminalPreview is probably a good idea so that you remember what it was)

@vitaminj
Thank you for finding that string! Now Windows Terminal Preview no longer shows up in my Windows 11 context menu 👍
