  1. Context menu when right-clicking on files and folders takes forever to load.


    I have this weird issue that started earlier this afternoon where when I right-click on any file or folders, it takes quite a while for the pop-up menu to show up. Right-clicking on the desktop or on empty spots in folders or shortcut files is working normally but it only is super slow when I right click on any file types like videos, music, pictures, etc. and folders. Can someone help me please?

    Thank You!

    :)

    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?
     
  3. Windows Right Click Not loading & Displaying Context menu in File Explorer

    I am using latest Windows10 I received with Lenovo Yoga 3. When I right click the folder Context menu is not dropping down & moreover windows keeps on showing the review symbol again & again. The drop down context menu just takes a very long time to load.

    Context menu when right-clicking on files and folders takes forever to load.

    "Open With" context Menu slow to load


    Hi all,

    so when i right click on the file and point to the "open with" menu, it should show the list of programs that the file could be opened. Every time after a restart the "open with" menu would take like 3 seconds to load, and after that first load, it would show the list right away. This not only happens when i restart my pc, but also when I haven't opened a file with the "open with" menu for like 1 or 2 hours and it will lag for like 3 seconds again for it to show the list of programs that it could be opened with.

    I've already tried programs like Autoruns, ShellExView and disabling those context menu would now help either. Also, I deleted the unnecessary programs from the open with list through the registry already and it still doesn't help.

    Any Suggestions?

    Thanks.
