Re: problem with right click or crating a new folder



I would like to thank Ramesh and Malke for the advice. I found the problem.

The solution for my problem was:
If you have a problem when you right-click on a blank area on the Desktop,
then you need to inspect the handlers in this registry key. (ShellExView
v1.14 and later versions enumerate the items from this location)

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \ Directory \ Background \ shellex \ ContextMenuHandlers

The only handler present by default (in a clean XP installation) is the New
handler. If you find any additional sub-keys there, it may have be added by
third-party applications. Usually, the software that comes with your graphic
card adds entries to the above location. Here is one instance, an article
from the Intel Graphics Controller website.

Might be helpfull for anyone else that has the same problem.

Thanks for the help!

Hi Delta,

Determine which shell extension is causing the problem.

Right-click is slow or weird behavior caused by context menu
handlers: http://windowsxp.mvps.org/slowrightclick.htm
http://www.bootdisk.com/bootlist/208.htm#4

By going to the links that Ramesh gave you and reading the information
there!
