FreeCommander Forum

I am brand new to FC. I installed the current version, then backed up to an older version to try to fix the problem -- but nothing works. I've looked thru help and the forum and tried every remotely possible option. Nothing helps.

In both of them the right click on a file name doesn't give the usual context menu (cut, edit, open with, rename, etc). It will give it every once in a while (it always does with "hyberfil.sys" & "pagefile.sys" in the C: root) But virtually nothing else. It will give a context menu out in the open space.

I'm running XP Home SP3 on an emachine (2.13 Ghz, 1.46 RAM).

If someone can help with this I am definitely interested! Thanks ahead of time.

Strange, try to reinstall the program, close FC, rename the FreeCommander.ini file and start FC as administrator.

Tried your suggestion - thanks - didn't work

Could this be an XP corruption issue?

Problem Solved

Turned out to be caused by a 3rd party shell extension. I don't know which one yet. Got to look through about 20 of them. But when I disabled them all, the right click worked fine.

The advice and specific how-to came from
