View 3 Replies View RelatedContext Menu Fly Out Direction
Jan 18, 2009With Windows XP the context menu would fly out to the left or the right, depending on how close it was to either the left or right side of the screen. in my VHP 32bit OS, for some reason, the context menus such as Send to, MagicISO, and Open With tend to favor flying out (opening) the left, unless the context menu is envoked on the extreme far left of the screen, then they fly out to the right side of the menu as usual. So for instance, if I right click on something in the exact middle of the screen, and choose Send To, the menu flys out (opens) to the left of Send To instead of following the direction of the Send To -> (arrow) which is on the right. This happens even when right clicking on the desktop itself, it just seems to favor the left. Anyone know the registry key where to adjust the direction sensing of the context menu? Or at least so it would favor the right instead of the left?

View 6 Replies View RelatedRe-order Windows Explorer Context Menu
Mar 28, 2009Something I've pondered for a long time, and never actually gotten around to looking into: How the $%#! does Windows Explorer decide what order to put the context menu items in? Does anyone know how to re-order it? As far as I can tell, it's completely willy-nilly. It even seems to change from right-click to right-click. (Right-click on a few different folders. You'll see the same menu items, but sometimes the order will change for no apparent reason.)

May 23, 2008I am running Norton Ghost 14.0 under Windows Vista Home Premium with the lovely SP1. There use to be an option when you right click a v2i file on the windows explorer, this option said Mount and I think there was a Open option too. The one I really need is the Mount one.

Can any of you tell me why should I stay with Vista? It is your last chance to convinced me.
Right-click Certain Files Desktop Context Menu Loads Slow
Oct 8, 2008Recently I've noticed that when I right click on certain files or the desktop, that it would load the context menu after about 1 second. I know this isn't much but it should not take that long for something that small. I went ahead and removed many items from the context menu and the desktop and all other files load the context menu almost instantly. My problem is that .exe files still take 1-2 seconds to load their context menu. I tried removing almost ALL the options in the context menu.
View 7 Replies View RelatedChange The Default Edit Program In Pictures Context Menu
Jan 25, 2010This is the Context Menu that I'm referring to, accessed by Start>Pictures>[Open a Folder to display thumbnails], Right-click on Thumbnail. With my current settings [where?], if I select and click on Edit, MS Windows Paint opens as the Default Editing Program. I don't like Paint at all, and want to change from that current Default Program, to allow my Pictures to be opened and edited by Picasa. Is there a method by which I can change that Context Menu, so that by clicking on Edit, the selected thumbnail automatically opens in Picasa And before anyone leaps in and suggests any other editing program from the plethora of others available [eg. Photoshop etc.], please don't waste your time - I'm not interested in them, as Picasa fulfills all of my basic photo editing requirements. Basically, I'm looking for a shortcut to open Picasa with just one click, as I'm aware that I can also get there through Open with, in the same Context Menu.

View 7 Replies View RelatedExplorer On Start And Context Menus And Long Starting Programs
Jul 20, 2009Explorer is no longer working properly in a few ways. Programs often take a long time to start and display “(Not responding)” on the their top window frames. Right click menu sometimes takes a long time to appear while explorer freezes. The explorer window itself is sometimes quite long to change the display when I change folder (this is far from often, but happens).
The first window to appear when we click on the Start Menu, the one with the large icons, is usually OK, but sometimes it does the same as the “All Programs” second window;
Here, the folders do not open and on Task Manager I can watch explorer taking up all the CPU available resources immediately after I pass to “All Programs”;
However, if I click “Back” (explorer stops abnormally using all CPU resources);
Then I click “All Programs” again and the previously clicked folder is now already open, but explorer is again up with CPU resources, so if now I click on a subfolder or on another folder, it all repeats again.
At this moment I don’t have backups to install.

Extended Disk Clean Up
Sep 6, 2008I downloaded the extended disk clean up shortcut, right clicked, ran as administrator, had all checked except for setup log files as strongly suggested, clicked ok, it said it was calculating the space I would regain by cleaning, it went straight to cleaning without showing the amounts in each checked section, and finished. I ran the utility to see about the error bug in reporting the size of the amounts as discribed and wanted to see if I had this bug to worry about. Why didnt the disk cleaning utility show me the amounts found in the locations and ask me if I wanted to go ahead and delete all the files? anyone?
