    "Paste" is not an option on right click menu


    I just noticed this:

    When I go to COPY files and PASTE them into folders on another PC on the home network, the PASTE option does not show in the menu when you right click the destination folder.
    Is this 'normal' behavior?

    I can Paste the files using the paste button in the ribbon in Windows Explorer.
    The Paste option shows up in the right click menu if I am copying and pasting on the same PC.
    The behavior is the same on other PCs on the network.
    Destination folder sharing permissions are full read-write for Everyone.

    I could have sworn this worked in the past.

    :)

    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. 'Open in new window' right-click menu option for File Explorer


    I just submitted this suggestion on Windows Uservoice:

    The idea: the right-click menu for folders in File Explorer has an option called 'Open in new window', which opens that folder in a new File Explorer window. Very useful for copying and moving things, and opening destination folders without accessing the start menu a second time.

    'Open in new window' right-click menu option for File Explorer


    Is this a weird joke/troll?

    That feature has been in Explorer since at least Windows 7...
