I would retract some flap on final approach, if I had just applied power for a go around. Otherwise, I would not.

I would be embarrassed to have placed myself in a phase of flight in a GA plane where raising flap for a continued landing could have any plausible benefit.

I've never flown a 777, so have no qualified comment on flaps use on that aircraft.
