However, you can use a keyboard sequence to access it via the context menu\u2014especially useful since \"Send to\" is part of the *post-upgrade context menu* which is hidden under *Show more options*. Here\u2019s how to do it:\n\n---\n\n### How to access \u201cSend to\u201d using keyboard shortcuts\n\n1. Select the file or folder you want.  \n2. Press **Shift + F10** (this opens the classic context menu, same as right-click). ([techcommunity.microsoft.com](https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/discussions/windows11/it-is-recommended-that-the-windows-11-right-click-menu-include-a-send-to%E2%80%9Doption-/4493467/replies/4540352?utm_source=openai))  \n3. Press **W** \u2013 this usually corresponds to \u201cShow more options\u201d. (In some systems this is another key\u2014look for the underscored letter next to \u201cShow more options.\u201d) ([techcommunity.microsoft.com](https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/discussions/windows11/it-is-recommended-that-the-windows-11-right-click-menu-include-a-send-to%E2%80%9Doption-/4493467/replies/4540352?utm_source=openai))  \n4. Navigate to the **Send to** submenu using the arrow keys, then use the arrow keys or enter to choose the destination.  \n\n---\n\n### Extra tips & facts\n\n- **Shift + F10** is useful because Windows 11 hides legacy entries like \"Send to\" in its newer streamlined context menu, and *Show more options* reveals them. ([techcommunity.microsoft.com](https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/discussions/windows11/it-is-recommended-that-the-windows-11-right-click-menu-include-a-send-to%E2%80%9Doption-/4493467/replies/4540352?utm_source=openai))  \n- If you hold **Shift** when right-clicking, it adds extra entries in some context menus, though not always for \"Send to\". It doesn\u2019t directly replace the sequence above. ([tweaktown.com](https://www.tweaktown.com/guides/11464/the-send-to-menu-is-the-right-click-feature-on-windows-11-that-nobody-bothers-to-customize/index.html?utm_source=openai))  \n- If you want to modify what appears under \u201cSend to\u201d, you can add or remove entries by placing shortcuts in the `shell:sendto` folder. To open this folder, press **Win + R**, type `shell:sendto`, and hit Enter. ([pcworld.com](https://www.pcworld.com/article/3102444/windows-11s-send-to-menu-is-a-mess-fix-it-in-seconds.html?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\nIf you like, I can walk you through customizing hotkeys or even mapping a faster way to open \u201cSend to\u201d (e.g. via PowerToys or AutoHotkey) so it feels like a built-in shortcut."
