    Can't right-click pictures on desktop...


    Hi!
    I can right-click any kind of file that I have stored on my desktop and get the fuill contextual menu, except for picture files. Whe I try on one of these, the focus is immediately lost. Only on some very rare occasions can I get the menu to show up.
    Has anyone got an idea of what could cause this?

    :)

    Unable to change the Display Picture; Right click on desktop doesn't work

    *Original Title: Desktop background

    When I right click on my desktop screen, nothing happens. Why can't I change the desktop picture?

    Custom desktop background missing after Windows 10 Fall creators update

    Open Start > Settings > Personalization > Background

    Click in the Background list box

    Choose Picture

    Click Browse

    Browse, point to the picture, click Choose picture.

    If you can't find the picture.

    Press Windows key + R

    Type:

    %AppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Themes\CachedFiles

    or

    %AppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Themes\TranscodedWallpaper

    Hit ENter

    Check if the picture is available in those locations.

    Right click it if you see it then click Set as desktop background.
