  2. Custom context menu entries

    So, just throwing this out there, in case somone knows.

    I have added a custom context menu entry for the program rightload, since by default the menu is broken in vistax64.

    It works pefect with single files, but when I select mutiple files and try to open, I get mutiple instances of the program (which makes sense), here is my entry:

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Rightload\Rightload.exe --server=1 --autostart %1

    So the %1 passes the filename to the program, and when I select multiple files it is just opening multiple instances of rightload each with a different file.

    What I'd like to do is be able to pass a list of the files selected to the program. Since I know it is capable of uploading multiple files from the context menu, all in one instance.

    So, is there something I can pass besides %1 that will do this? I have looked around and can't seem to find an answer anywhere... *Frown Unable to add RMB context menu for selected file :(

    RMB click on menu items not working.

    Hi,

    I might be the odd people use RMB click on menu items.

    And since I upgraded to windows 10, I'm getting a lot of places RMB no longer works.

    For example, I right click the icon pinned on taskbar, let's say explorer, I get the context menu, which lists short cut to desktop, documents, explorer etc, etc, I then RMB click on desktop, it give me a new menu with "open", "properties", "unpin from this
    list", if I RMB click on any of them, nothing happens. I have to use LMB click to effectively click onto the item.

    This is the same with Edge when I right click a link and right click again on for example "open in new tab".

    What's the purpose of removing the RMB click ability?

    Plus I can still right click on desktop context menu, this is now just inconsistent experience.

    Is there anyway to enable the RMB click again? I know it might be just me, habits are hard to change, I'd rather use Chrome than Edge for just this reason. But I don't have any choices for the taskbar.

    Anyone knows the settings, please let me know.

    Thank you!

    Context menu problem

    Hi,

    Your concern with the context menu can be due to the configuration of your device and/or broken system files. To better understand your concern, we'd like to know the following:

    • The last known changes made/activities performed on your device prior to your concern.
    • If you've experienced your concern on all areas in Windows 10 where context menu is expected to be available. Examples are File Explorer and desktop icons.
    • The version and build of Windows 10 that you're using on your device. To check this, you can perform the steps posted on this

      link
      .

    In addition, we'd like to request for a screenshot of your concern with the context menu.

    In the meantime, we'd recommend performing a clean boot in Windows to isolate software conflicts on your device. To do this, you can perform the steps posted on this link.
    In the clean boot environment, check if you'll be able to load the usual options for the context menu. The link will also provide steps to isolate the possible cause of the issue. Once you're done troubleshooting, check the How
    to reset the computer to start normally after clean boot troubleshooting
    section to revert your device to normal boot.

    If you still experience your concern while in the clean boot environment, we'd recommend creating a new user/administrator account to isolate profile related issues. To do this, you can perform the steps posted on this

    link
    .

    We look forward to your response.
