Hello, please tell me how to make an original Windows context menu to show up (instead of NextStart one) when I press the right mouse key on the Windows start menu icon. Thank you!

No way to do that currently sorry. However, thanks for bringing this to my attention, I'll see what I can do. :)

It's strange. On my old build, it was exactly like this. I click on Windows start icon with mouse right button, then a windows original context menu pops up. After reinstalling Windows 10, it isn't working like that anymore (even if I used saved program options from the older system).
P.S. Win version and build are the same

Only way to get the Windows *original* right click context menu for the Start button was to click the REAL Start button on the Windows taskbar.

The Windows 10 Start button on the *NextSTART* taskbar is actually an internal command. To get something like the original right click context menu for the Windows Start button in an upcoming release, I will have to deliberately emulate the options in it so I can add them to the NextSTART's right click context menu of that particular internal command.

Hope this makes sense. :)

Added all the Windows 10 Start button right click menu options to the right click menu of the NextSTART Start button. This feature will be available in the next release. :)

What do you see when you right-click the Start button? My left one is from NextSTART and the right one is Windows' normal one. Everything from the right one is also in the left one. Note that there is nothing to turn on. The options are just automatically there.

If you are not on version 20.4 (a beta test version), you need to turn on the feature that checks for beta test versions. See the red box in this screenshot.
