  3. 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?

    '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.
