    Windows not letting you right click after awaking PC from sleep.


    Hello I run Windows 11 Pro 2H22. This is my gaming rig. I have my pc set up when sitting idle for 5 minute a screensaver runs. After 15 min or so it goes to sleep. Here's where the problem starts, I jiggle the mouse then I goto right click on a folder or any icon that's on the desktop. Nothing happens not context menu no nothing. After 30 to 60 seconds goes by, then I am able to right click and receive a context menu. This is very annoying as my other Windows 11 pc does not do this. Here is a video I provide if that helps.Thank you!https://youtu.be/P7cEfwSg7yE

    Windows 10 sleep

    I'd already tried using default power settings - no change.

    As you suggested I created a test user account, that also fails to awake from sleep..

    Thanks for your advice, any suggestions for next steps?

    Sleep takes ages to awake

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand how you feel about the situation . Let me help you in resolving the issue.

    This issue may happen due to system file corruption. I suggest you to run System file checker. System File checker (SFC) scan is done to check if there are any corrupted system files that could be causing this issue. Kindly follow
    the below given steps:

    • Press Windows key + X, select
      Command prompt (Admin)       to bring up elevated Command prompt.
    • In Command prompt type sfc/scannow and press enter.
    • Restart the computer.
    If no corrupted system files were found in the previous state, then I suggest you to try the following steps:

    • Open command prompt by pressing Windows key + X and selecting “Command prompt admin”.
    • In command prompt, type the following commands and press Enter after each command:
    DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth

    DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

    • Close the command prompt and restart the PC and check if it works.
    Hope this information helps. Please let us know if the issue persist and we will be happy to assist you further.
