Right click mouse issues with Windows 7

My right click of the mouse does not work on my desktop with Win 7. The only thing that happens is a quick flash of the right click menu but that's it. I used 3 different mouse thinking that may be the problem but it's not. I use Win 7 64 bit.

See if a third-party shell extension is causing the problem. ShellExView to study.

  • Option to "Remove" USB key by right clicking in the 'Computer' window it is no longer available.

    Using Vista, there is an option to "Remove" a USB key in the drop-down list it with a right-click in the 'Computer' window that lists all of your drives. He was usually right under "Eject" if I remember correctly. Why is it is gone?

    Please note that I am aware, you can also use the option 'Remove the device safely' in the task bar, but this application relates to the command drop-down list as the taskbar icon is a bit heavy and I preferred the speed and convenience to make it quickly through the window of the computer.

    Which is probably causing this problem?

    I see that you have changed your question of 'My Computer' to 'Computer', etc., after my reply to you.

    If your original question was 'Computer', etc., my answer would be more than the only option.

    Computer errors may occur from time to time, to which we have no precise answer.

  • Anyone know of any compatibility issues with Windows 8 and RV series routers?

    I have a small network with a laptop computer, Windows 8, Windows XP desktop computer and a network MyBookLiveDuo storage device. I have sharing enabled between these devices. Everything worked well on a network switch. I replaced the switch with the RV110W VPN Firewall Router to add better security to my network before I have expand it. Since then, I have a laptop Windows 8 intermittent connectivity while the connectivity of the XP desktop computer shows no problem.

    On the laptop Windows 8 I ran network troubleshooting, and he complained that two devices on the network are (NAT) network address translation and the symptoms he describes is what I see. Problem is that I don't have a network Analyzer to look at the network in more depth. I looked online for the RV110W documentation and if NAT is listed as one of the characteristics, there is no discussion in the documentation on how to manage this feature in the router.

    I can connect to the Windows 8 laptop from Office XP and access shared content. I can connect to the Duo since Office XP without difficulty. However, except when they reappear periodically under the heading of my network in Explorer on the laptop Windows 8, I can't access the Office XP or the Duo of the laptop Windows 8. Curiously, however, I have a part of the Duo mapped as a network drive on the laptop Windows 8 and I can access it even when everything else has gone. Also, the interface of management for the Duo appears on the laptop Windows 8 and I can access the Duo to manage. Only, I can't access the shares on the Duo. Then all of a sudden they reappear under network in the file Explorer and I can then access. I think it must have to do with NAT, but I can't find anything out about it.

    If it's something I can turn on the router long enough to see if the problem goes away I would like to try, but I can't find it in the documentation, and I can't find it when I look aroiund in the management interface.

    The fact that I am not having the form of the XP desktop computer problem makes me think that a compatibility issue with Windows 8. Does anyone know if Windows 8 did anything with NAT? I try to get help from Microsoft Technical Support, but their level 1 tech told me to call Tech Support Pro when they open later this morning. Support cat Cisco won't open until Monday at 09:00.

    Also, throughout this connection problem Internet from the laptop through the router is never interrupted. It's strictly connectivity with other devices on the internal network that comes and goes.

    Hi Gregg,

    NAT must not play unless your applications on the internet. The "port Internet" or "WAN port" is a NAT port that converts your public IP address from ISP to your LAN subnet addresses. NAT allows multiple computers on a network to use 1 public IP address.

    If your devices are connected to the Ether "LAN ports" they are not affected by NAT unless they are Web applications. 4 'LAN ports"are 2 layer switch ports. This means that all local requests are forwarded by the switch ports.

    This device did replace exactly? The XP computers, DUET and window 8, make these products using the static IP address or you allow the RV110 to assign an IP address automatically? What IP address you are using on the LAN of the RV110?

  • Click right button works only with Windows 7

    My right click button does not work with Windows 7. I had problems with the new cases, but with the help of your part which has been resolved.

    I fixed it!

    When I went to the control panel and the mouse, instead of searching the Internet for the latest update, which it said I already had, I went to my own PC and downloaded the driver and it works now.

    Thank you for your help.

  • Right-click mouse button defective function with Word Pad program

    I use a Logitech 'Wave' and the mouse wireless keyboard.  For some strange reason the click right button on the mouse has changed, but only in regard to the MS Windows Word Pad program.  Context menus still appear on the web pages, the office, etc, but for some reason that I'm no longer to get the regular menu of choices when you use Word Pad when I select text (cut, paste, etc.).

    Technical support of Logitech said that he is apparently not a mouse problem, but rather a problem of specific program.  I can do before reinstalling Windows to fix this?

    For the reasons in my control, context menu began to reappear again.  I don't have a clue as to why he stopped either (nothing happened on the right click) or restarted.

  • Right click mouse to drag and drop or rename folders and files does not work

    For a few weeks now, I had problems with the right click function to drag - move files and folders, or rename files and folders. This happens when I use windows Explorer or access to the computer and click thruogh for a feature. He can't go to all the folders and files, but many. I can't right click on these folders or files to change the sharing because explore closes and restarts on the desktop with a right-click. Manifest error "appcrash" reason. I have Norton Security suite installed and neither Norton or your fix program detects a problem.

    Please notify.

    awehnert

    Have you installed or removed/uninstalled all hardware or software or drivers since just before the start of this problem (if so, exactly what - name, version, device, whatever)?  Norton take any infection, although it is said that he cleaned their since just before the problem started?  If so, you know the names of these infections?

    Do you know when this problem started?  Try a system restore to a point in time BEFORE the problem started.  Here is the procedure: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/using-windows-vista-system-restore/.  Don't forget to check the box to show more than 5 days of restore points.  If the first attempt fails, then try an earlier point or two.  NOTE: You will need to re - install any software and updates that you have installed between now and the restore point, but you can use Windows Update for updates.  It's been a while so I'm not sure that you have a fairly old restore point but it is possible - hopefully.

    Are these files and folders in your user profile?  If Yes, your user profile may become corrupted (in fact, if can still be corrupted if the folders are not there).  To fix this use http://windows.microsoft.com/en-AU/windows-vista/Fix-a-corrupted-user-profile.  If that is the only available Administrator Profile (you need to be an administrator to fix this), enable the Hidden Administrator Account (HAA) using http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/default.aspx?&lang=en&cr=US&guid=&sloc=en-us&dg=microsoft.public.windows.vista.administration_accounts_passwords&p=1&tid=d20f9db4-7b2c-48be-a087-7835dc2a9055&mid=d20f9db4-7b2c-48be-a087-7835dc2a9055.  If you don't remember the password, try nothing because that's probably what you (or seller) did during the installation.  Once that is done, don't forget to disable the HAA to save it in case it is necessary once again and for safety reasons (since people often try to hack into systems using this account).  Do NOT use the HAA as your administrator account because if you lose the only administrator on the system account or it is damaged again, then you're watered.

    We will check some of your system files and hard drive for ccorruption that may be the cause:

    Go to start / all programs / accessories / command prompt and right click on command prompt, and then click Run as administrator.

    Type sfc/scannow, go and let it run.  It will scan and try to correct some of your system files.  If all goes well he comes complete with no corruption, it could not repair (if it has these post of corruption here or try to analyze it to find the problem or files using http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928228.  Try to put all the corrupt files here so that we can see if they can be repaired with good copies of the installation disc (unless there are too many).

    While in the command prompt, type chkdsk /f /r and enter and let it run.  She might want to plan itself to start at the next startup.  Okay, then restart so that the program can run. It will scan and attempt to resolve any corruption or bad sectors on your hard drive and remove especially as a potential cause.

    Please checkwith the manufacturer to find out if there is a mouse driver updated (software or firmware) available for your make and model of mouse and your version of Vista.  Download and install to update the driver to the most recent available and see if that solves the drag and drop problem (even though I know that this will not affect the question of the name change).  Once you have the drivers, you can install them via the Manager device as follows: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-device-manager-install-driver.html.

    If it doesn't (or if SFC detects corruption it cannot repair), we you will need to do a repair/system upgrade using the Windows Vista Installation disc authentic (you own or that you can borrow from someone).  Here is the procedure: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/88236-repair-install-vista.html.  Although this will not affect your data, settings or programs, you should always back up your data before you start just be on the safe side. You can have a lot of updates to re - install (including all you need to remove service packs).  If the version of the system came with SP1 or SP2 preinstalled and the disc is an earlier version, then you will need to make a record of slipstream as follows: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/151606-vista-sp1-slipstream-installation-dvd.html.

    I hope this helps.

  • Right click on the taskbar Windows XP and auto-hide is now missing as an option

    Original title: when a right click on the taskbar programs

    After right-clicking on program icons on the taskbar the separator for other area of the task bar became uneven. There was like a stage that has been created instead of a straight line and the Hide button automatically went. What I was doing was checking to see what programs might be arrested if necessary during a download or install a program.  After that I closed and open then windows the taskbar was back to normal but Autohide disappeared. Auto hide has been giving me problems is not there when windows open at first, but after about an hour 1/2, he appears as usual. It is possible that if you install a program that does not correctly that other functions may be lost even after you uninstall the program?

  • Right click > menu > open with > choose default program "this program has no an associated program to perform this action...". »

    I get this dialogue whenever I try to choose to open one file with other than the default program. Sometimes, there are some programs to choose and they work but when I select "choose default program" all I get is this dialogue. This also applies when there is no program to choose from. The biggest headache is when there is no association at present such as .db files which could create a storage backup or similar program. When I right-click on these files, I get the dialogue immediately. Windows 7 - all to this day. (I'm aware of files, newspapers and others if necessary and has already attempted a difficulty with sfc/scannow as administrator.) He suggested some files cannot be repaired and showed me the log file. Everything in the log file was 'OK').

    A registry of missing/incorrect key may cause this error. Apply the difficulty #12 'Open with' error "this file does not have a program associated with from this link (unzip and run the REG file)."

    (FYI, the REG file is a file in plain text that you can open with Notepad, where you need to check its contents before the merger).
