  1. Quick Menu of Start (power user menus) failed to function


    I got an Lenovo Y460 laptop and don't know since when the quick menu of start (by right click) fails to function properly ie I only managed to use some of the default function eg run and power but almost all others do not function eg computer management etc.
    I tried to add a new local user and tried but no luck and tried to register start still not working.
    Appreciate any help you may offer to solve this.
    Thanks
    Anthony

    Trouble with my right-click START Power user (Context) utility menu

    Again from post #2 please perform this diagnostic step:
    If it fails the same way, you could try an in-place upgrade repair install which keeps all progs and data.

    If the problem you've created without a ready means of reversion is specific to one user profile, there may be no easy means to identify the damage.

    Did you try this from post #2?
    The following is for interest only and not relevant to your problem:

    Quick Menu of Start (power user menus) failed to function

    Feature suggestion: Add right-click menu

    Suggestion: Please add a Windows 7 Jump-List and/or right-click menu to the GPU-Z icon in the Windows taskbar. Possible menus in it would be "Exit" and "About GPU-Z...".
    Maybe also "Switch to tab 1/Switch to tab 2/Switch to videocard 1/Switch to videocard 2" too.
    Examples of programs that have such menus are ICQ, Skype, AIM.

    NOTE: It seems for a right-click menu, Windows 7 is not needed - it works on WinXP and Vista too.
    But even a Windows 7 Jump-list may be good enough.
    What do you think?
