  1. Right Clicking Issue


    Ok so this isn't a big issue but it's driving me nuts. I run the latest version of Windows 10 64 Bit. I have 4 disks in my computer. 3 SSDs and 1 HDD.

    Every time I log in I can right click anywhere I want with no issue. But if I choose to right the HDD under my computer I get a blue spinning circle that replaces the mouse curser and it stays that way until I try and close the window. After a few seconds my screen goes black and then everything returns back to normal after a few seconds. I'd imagine that would be the explorer.exe crashing and restarting.

    The HDD has nothing on it at all as it is just a backup drive for when I move files around. It's just driving me insane because I don't know what's casuisng the hang up.

    I can right click any other drive and everything is fine. I right click the desktop and I may see a blue circle for a fraction of a second but then the context menu appears with no issue.

    Here is the weird thing though. As long as I right click something else first I can then right click the HDD with no problem but if the HDD is the first thing I right click it hangs up and explorer.exe crashes.

    :)

  2. Right click issues

    Hello Elize,

    There are several causes for this kind of issue to happen when browsing the Internet using your Windows device. It would be great if you can tell us more about your concern. Please answer the following:

    • When did the issue start?
    • Are you getting any error messages?
    • Did you notice any system setting changes prior to the issue?
    • Can you tell us which browser you're using?
    • Is the issue isolated to a specific website?
    • What is the OS Build of your Windows 10 device? Click the
      Start button, type About your PC, press
      Enter, and then scroll down to
      Windows specifications to find this information.

    For isolation of the issue, we advise performing a clean
    boot
    . A clean boot is performed to start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs.
    This procedure will help us determine if the issue is due to a software conflict while using a browser.
    Kindly follow the steps outlined in this support article
    on how to perform a clean boot.

    NOTE: Please go to the section:
    Reset the computer to start normally after clean boot troubleshooting to boot the PC in normal startup after fixing the issue.

    We'll be waiting for your response.
