Right Click just Spins and Quits for No Context Menu in Win 10
Posted: 21.02.2020, 22:27
I've been using FC for years, and under Win 7 and 8 as well. Now I'm on Win 10 and right click context menu is not working. I get the throbber/spinner for a second or two, and then nothing. These are fresh installs of FC with no plug-ins, etc.
I did some searching prior to asking here and found a temporary work around where I can hold the Windows key while right-clicking and it works, but then the Win Start menu pops up when the Win key is released, and the new dialog that I wanted, like TortoiseSVN, is in the background rather than the foreground.
I have also done the following in response to info I found while researching this:
* Renaming freecommander.exe to explorer.exe
* Tried using the current 64 bit version
* Tried using the current 32 bit version (FreeCommander XE 2020 Build 810a 32-bit public)
* Tried using the current Portable version (XE 2020 Build 810a 32-bit public)
* Installed as Administrator during both installations.
My specs:
* Windows 10 Pro 1903
* 64 bit computer
* Using stock installs of FC with no added in plug-ins, etc.
* I am an admin on my machine
