    Quickly Select Item From Right Click Menu


    I just switched to Windows and am trying to learn and optimise my workflow. Something I am dearly missing is the ability to quickly select a menu item from the right click context menu, by right clicking and holding on an item, moving the cursor to the menu item, and releasing the click to select the menu item.This means I can for example quickly open a link in a new tab without two clicks - I right click and hold, move the cursor to "Open in new tab", and release - which then opens the link in a new tab. This is just one example of this. Currently, right clicking and holding does not bring up

    :)

    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?

    Windows File Explorer right click menu is selecting files through the menu

    In Windows 11 File Explorer, if I select a file and right click it to choose something from the dropdown list, like copy, instead of selecting the menu item, it selects the file underneath the menu item. It's basically clicking through the dropdown list. I have to right click off to the side so that my cursor is over the preview pane and not over a file below the command (copy or whatever) or use keyboard shortcuts. How do I stop this?
