  1. Why has MS removed the right click New menu?


    When I want to create a new folder, text file or shortcut on my desktop, I used to be able to right click, select New and choose my option. This has now gone! If you are already in a folder, you can select from the ribbon at the top, but what if I want to create directly in my desktop? I don't see any reason for MS to remove the New option from the right click menu. They have even stopped the reg mod from working. Does anyone know of a way to get this back?

    :)

    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?
