Anyone else use this program and noticed the same thing? It doesn't do that through File Explorer. This is on Windows 11.

XYplorer is latest version.

It does not happen with the latest MP3tag and the latest XY64 on Win8.1.
Has anyone other than the OP tested it on Win11?

I didn't have the Mp3tag context menu at all at first, so I uninstalled and re-installed Mp3tag completely and then had the context menu in both WE and XY and when Mp3tag is opened via context menu it opens as expected in the foreground.

Exactly what I had to do and what I experienced.

Forgot to mention I had to register the dll again for my non admin user to get the context menu for that user as well.
