My desktop right click function stopped working

My desktop right click function stopped working.  This is a new load of Windows 7, the only thing I added is the gadget from Microsoft application launcher.  I tried different mouse and all have the same fault.  I use the Aero theme but others have tried without success.

Have I made a change to an admin somewhere feature that prevents users from the right click function?

Hi tsorf,

1. try to use the same mouse on another computer and check.
2 on which Windows are you clicking on? It happens on all windows, try clicking inside and on records.
3 change the mouse's usb port and check if it is a usb mouse and try again.

4 using the tool (SFC.exe) System File Checker to determine which file is causing the problem, then replace the file. To do this, follow these steps:
(a). open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click programs, accessories principally made, right-click Guest, and then click Run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on allow.
(b) type the following command and press ENTER:
sfc/scannow
The sfc/scannow command. analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.
 
More information on SFC scan found in this document:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833

5 let update us the drivers for the mouse (usb mouse)
(a) click Start and type devices and printers, and then press ENTER.
(b) make a right click on the mouse, and click Properties.
(c) go to the Hardware tab and click on properties, and click on the driver tab.
(d) click on update driver.
(e), click on apply and Ok.

to 5 mouse pin, follow the steps in the Device Manager.

If it's a five pin mouse update drivers in the Manager by clicking on properties in the mouse devices and other pointing devices.

  • Satellite C50-A560 - right-click suddenly stopped working

    So Hey all,.

    I was watching a movie on my laptop 2 days ago, but all of a sudden the right click doesn't work anymore! I tried to reinstall the driver and it worked for a little bit but it kept spamming the right click menu.

    But now it doesn't work at all. Why did this happened?

    It is not easy to explain what the problem is here.
    On the first try, please to test the functionality of touchpad in general. If your computer uses a Synaptics software please open it and change the options for touchpad left and right button, just to see if something will change.

    In the end, I have to ask if everything else, except the right touchpad button, works correctly?

  • Drag & drop and right click to stop work in Premiere Pro

    Hello!

    We use Adobe Premiere Pro in the business for a while now. Only today it began to happen that first would completely freeze on the attempt to drag and drop a file in sequence. Drag / move cursor would remain same after the release of the left mouse button and the interface user of first overall would freeze. Here is an example of what is happening: https://youtu.be/hXbBY342HLI

    It is the latest version of Premiere Pro. I tried to clean the Adobe programs and settings power off the PC completely and everything reinstalled again. It does not solve the issue.

    This problem will not occur in all the projects that I noticed. But I don't see anything in common between the projects in which what happens.

    Does anyone have a similar problem?

  • Desktop Window Manager has stopped working and was closed

    One of our machines (HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC running Windows Vista x 64) will receive the error "Desktop Window Manager has stopped working and was closed" with lots of close error. He reappears (as well as all windows flasher to non-aero, then back to aero) in a few minutes, spends about 5 times per hour.

    I did some research on this and have already taken the following measures without a bit of luck:

    1 run the command chkdsk / SFC scan - nothing found via chkdsk, SFC found some issues fixed, and some, it did not set. Them that it solves not all related to Windows Sidebar, which I do not / does not start.

    2. put updated drivers for ATI Radeon 3200HD - this had a lot of new questions. Installing caused newer drivers ATI catalyst to no longer work with errors during installation and popup errors at startup. After trying several solutions workaround to try to get installed it, I ended up coming back to the driver that came with the laptop, that are properly installed and working without error. I am skeptical of update of this stable driver as a solution to the dwm.exe error.

    3. this problem just started yesterday, that occur with not a lot of changes. Other than updates of windows (I think that .NET framework and a few other updates installed), I replaced NOD32 antivirus with Bitdefender antivirus. The system was stable with bitdefender for about 2 weeks, so I'm not convinced that this program is causing the error.

    4. the event viewer shows the following:

    Failing application Dwm.exe, version 6.0.6002.18005, time stamp 0x49e02696, failed module ntdll.dll, version 6.0.6002.18881, time stamp 0x51da3d16, exception code 0 x 80000003, offset 0x00000000000461f0, process id 0 x 124 error, start the application time 0x01cea0365a457adc.

    Offset, process id and start on time all vary, but there are a lot of these application errors in the viewer all screaming Dwm.exe like the failing application.

    What should be my next course of action?

    You do not receive an error but a caveat. NTStatus results (the set of codes execption used by ntdll - the failed module) begin to 0 for no error, 4 for information (you should never see this), 8 for putting guard and C for error.

    It's your specific error.

    //
    MessageId: STATUS_BREAKPOINT
    //
    MessageText:

    Breakpoint
    A breakpoint has been reached.
    //
    #define STATUS_BREAKPOINT ((NTSTATUS) 0x80000003L) / / winnt

    Problem is, you shouldn't have breakpoints. Breakpoints are set by debuggers and stop the execution of the program to the State of the program can be examined. There should be no breakpoints in a retail system. More breakpoints are inserted into memory during execution of the program in a debugger. They tend not to do in the actual file.

    So here are two assumptions, either you have no exit code, IE test code (driver?). Or you have a running program that behaves like a debugger (which is suspect).

    Each of the three towers of programs, services, and drivers in increasing amounts. So restrict the possible culprits.

    Clean boot

    Click Start - all programs - Accessories - run and type

  • Satellite A200 - Touchpad scroll function stop working after BIOS update

    Hello

    After that I updated the BIOS (drawn from the Toshiba site), the scroll function stop working. I can still click, move the mouse pointer, but can no longer navigate the touchpad. Relocation of Synaptics driver is not the problem. The strange thing is that the computer detects only my touchpad as standard pointing device (port: PS/2) device. "Graph of pressure" and "Moodpad" function also stop working and complain "this program requires a Synaptics TouchPad, and the Synaptics Pointing device driver.
    My computer is Satellite A200 PSAE0C-TR605C.

    Anyone know the reason?
    Thank you

    Danny

    Hello

    What operating system is installled and which is more interesting: what version of BIOS you have installed? Why I ask? Because there are 2 different BIOS versions, one for Vista (1.80) and one for XP (5.20) which means that when you Flash a BIOS XP on a computer with Vista installed then some functions do not work properly as the FN keys or the touchpad.

    If please check this out and make sure you have the appropriate BIOS installed.

  • Desktop Window Manager has stopped working after loading of updates 12/10/10 MS

    Once the download and installation of updates for Windows 12/10/10 patches, Desktop Window Manager has stopped working.  Event viewer lists under Applications:

    The operating system is Win 7 x 64.  Video card is a Gigabyte GTS450OC1 with its latest driver running on an Intel DP55KG MB with 8 GB memory Corsair XMS3.  The system was fully functional and stable immediately before the update.  I don't know which of the 18 patches is in conflict with the nvwgf2umx.dll file.  Device Manager reports no hardware problem with any component.

    In my attempts to solve the problem, I run chkdsk f, sfc/scannow (which have reported no problem) and reloaded the video driver (without uninstall first).   Nothing works so far.  I even tried to defragment the master file with Diskeeper 2010 start time Table Defragger (based on another post, I've found), also without success.

    What is the reference for this?

    This may seem like the thing the more janky to post, but I got the same error several months:

    Problem event name: APPCRASH
    Application name: Dwm.exe

    And could not cancel the record/re-record the dll it error out on an entry point missing or whatever.
    So what for some reason any worked for me is to rename C:\Windows\System32\nvwgf2umx.dll to nvwgf2umx.dll.bak (all other copies of this file are in the folder DriverStore).
    After that, I ran from an administrator command prompt
    net stop uxsms
    net start uxsms

    And miraculously all started working again.  I'm running a GTX570 with latest drivers nvidia from Scripture.
    Note: You probably shouldn't be move/rename things in System32 unless you are confident and have your data backed up.  It worked for me, but who knows you.
