So we know that at least this removal was intentional. And it's really not a big loss - this view was practically undiscoverable, and it looked like it was never updated since Windows 95. I have no idea if any of its custom features even still worked, beyond basic displaying.

You may think these removals are because Windows 11's Explorer replaced the ribbon from Windows 8 with a toolbar, or perhaps the later addition of tabs in Explorer, but no! The Control Panel in Windows 11 still starts the "Ribbon Explorer", and yet it's missing both the menu bar and the GAC view.
