First, I replied to my original post (on my gmail: _____), the first line of which is this:
OK, re-installing from this: gvim_9.1.0_x64_signed.exe
Second, the right-click Vim option was NOT there. Also, the Open With "Vim" option also was NOT there.
It was suggested to register the DLL. When that failed, it was suggested that I manually add a few registry entries - which I did. NOW, these two options are there after right-clicking a TXT file in Windows Explorer.
I was cautioned that this manual registry editing may result in other functionality failures later. I do want all designed functionality.
What am I missing?

Yes, that is the one. You mentioned before that you used the zip file,
so I was confused.

But why do you think you need to call regsvr32 command manually?
Also as mentioned before, please try the latest version from
https://github.com/vim/vim-win32-installer/releases
Thanks,
