Hello Eric,

Thank you for reaching out to us regarding this,

Good news: "Open when available" has not been removed. Starting with RDM 2026.2, the Open menu was redesigned to show only your pinned actions by default, to keep the menu shorter. Less-common actions, including "Open when available," were moved into a new "Open (more)..." dialog instead of always being shown.

You can bring it back into your normal context menu in a few clicks. Use the Open dropdown on the Home ribbon, and choose "Open (more)...". In that dialog, search for "available," find the "Open when available" tile, and click the pin icon on it. It will then reappear directly in the entry's normal Open menu, exactly like before.

Let me know if this helps,

Best regards,
