- Right Click Menu not working
- Posted by AIANDAS on November 15th, 2007
When I go into the All Programs and attempt to sort my programs, the right
click simply blinks. It doesn't work any more. How can I fix this? Thanks!

A few things to try:
Right-click is slow or weird behavior caused by context menu handlers:

Line 56. (r-h column) Enable or Disable Right Click Context Menu

You need to enable the "Enable Dragging and Dropping" Option in your start menu properties. Follow these steps:
Classic Start Menu:
Right-click Taskbar, Properties, click Start Menu tab, choose Customize
Enable the option "Enable Dragging and Dropping."
For New Start Menu:
Right-click Taskbar, Properties, click Start Menu tab, choose Customize
Click "Advanced" tab and enable the option "Enable Dragging and Dropping."

capability went away?
thx
cut previous post...
On a system running Windows XP Media Center (guess this is the same
level as XP Home?) SP2, in the My Pictures folder.
One could right click a thumbnail (View set to look at thumbnail file
images), and then rotate the thumbnail clockwise or counter clockwise to
correct a photo. This capability suddenly went away unexpectedly. My
system with XP Pro SP2 does rotate the thumbnails in Explorer File Manager.
Query of support didn't provide an answer. Can someone advise me on how
this might have happened?
Thx

It was the camera. Fuji Finepix A210 works with photos and can be
rotated using Explorer Thumbnails.
Photos taken with Fuji Finepix A500 cannot be rotated on either Explorer
or on Image and Fax Viewer but of course can be opened with a photo
editor and manipulated any way.
Guess this post is in the wrong forum as a result of this!

This worked! thank you. I think when I installed some new burnware it must
thrown that functionality for a loop. I have to remember this and save it!
