Windows 10: Rightclicking my deskstop softlocks it

When I right click a black space on my desktop, it loads infinitely making it impossible to use. I can right click any file just fine, it's just the context menu that happens when right clicking an empty space that's crashing it. I can fix it by restarting windows explorer or waiting aprox 10 minutes, and can still theoretically use right click by opening the desktop folder through file explorer.

Administrative Rights rightclick option has been lost for about a year now......

John Vil,

Thanks so much for the suggestion and info you posted.

I went through the steps of the article you suggested and unfortunately that did not even work.

I still cannot get most of my apps to respond to a rightclick Administrator rights.

I did however find out something interesting concerning this issue.

If I go into for example: C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe to get the command prompt, I actually can rightclick

and get Administrators rights.

This is where the issue gets even more confusing to me.

I have always used shortcuts for my files and folders in all Windows versions for over 20 years.

I believe this is where the issue seems to narrow down to, he shortcuts themselves.

For whatever reason, in the past my shortcuts would allow Administrative rightclick rights.

For the last year or so, they do not.

Just trying to work through this ongoing tissue, as I really do need the escalated rights to make changes, when necessary.

A thousand bouquets of gratitude for your suggestions!

I am sure they will help somebody else with a similar issue.
