Windows 10: Broken right-click menu entries: Windows 2004 update bug?

Not 100% sure if it's from the 2004 update (installed since mid-August for me) but now nothing happens when clicking on some entries in various Windows level context menus. Examples:

• In File Explorer, right-click on This PC, click on Manage → Nothing
• In taskbar, right-click on VS Code to open a recent folder → Nothing
• In Start menu, right-click on Edge, click on Run as administrator → Nothing

Don't see the logic and don't know how to resolve this if it's through registry fumbling.

Anyone else?

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?

 

Custom context menu entries

So, just throwing this out there, in case somone knows.

I have added a custom context menu entry for the program rightload, since by default the menu is broken in vistax64.

It works pefect with single files, but when I select mutiple files and try to open, I get mutiple instances of the program (which makes sense), here is my entry:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Rightload\Rightload.exe --server=1 --autostart %1

So the %1 passes the filename to the program, and when I select multiple files it is just opening multiple instances of rightload each with a different file.

What I'd like to do is be able to pass a list of the files selected to the program. Since I know it is capable of uploading multiple files from the context menu, all in one instance.

So, is there something I can pass besides %1 that will do this? I have looked around and can't seem to find an answer anywhere... *Frown

 

Entries in the Start Menu can't be removed

Hi there,

I have two entries in my Start Menu that can't be removed. Both the programs have been uninstalled from my computer, but their entries are still there.

I tried:

1. Going to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs to remove them there, but they aren't listed there either.
2. Clicking on the entries in the Start Menu. Nothing happens.
3. Right clicking and selecting "Uninstall", nothing happens.
4. Right clicking, going to "More" and selecting "Run as administrator". Nothing happens.
5. Right clicking, going to "More" and selecting "App Settings". Opens and list of apps, and of course, it doesn't list these entries, as they've been uninstalled.

Any assistance would be appreciated.
