Description
Description of the Issue
The latest version of Notepad++ replaces the "Pin to Quick access" in the Windows 11 right click menu.
This is due to it being added in the wrong way.
Instead of just overwriting something else, it should be added like described here:
#13170 (comment)
The correct way to do it is to use Sparse Manifests: https://blogs.windows.com/blog/2021/07/19/extending-the-context-menu-and-share-dialog-in-windows-11/
Also, please don't close this bug as "expected behavior", since you are not supposed to just overwrite the built-in menu options to add your own.
Steps to Reproduce the Issue
- Install the latest Notepad++ version
- Watch as it takes over the "Pin to Quick access" menu option
Expected Behavior
It shouldn't overwrite the default Windows behavior, but should instead add it's own menu option to the list.
Actual Behavior
It takes the easy (and wrong) way out, and just replaces the existing menu item, instead of doing it the right way.
