Digsy Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 Attention IT bods: I have an odd Windows Explorer bug under XP Pro. It has done this from a clean install - no idea what is causing it. If I right-click on an item to bring up the contexy menu for "Delete, Rename, Cut, Copy, Paste" etc, then the contect menu takes AGES to appear (maybe about 10 seconds). If I immediately repeat the click then the menu starts to behave normally. If I then leave Explorer and use another program an then come back into it and repeat the action then the delay comes back. Almost like its caching the menu. Any ideas? It's starting to annoy me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digsy Posted February 21, 2005 Author Share Posted February 21, 2005 Interesting. I do have one or two programs that add items into the context menu. I'll try disabling them and see what happens. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 It's usually a broken link in t'registry or a gammy app. If it continues to give you probs give me a bell and I'll come look -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
