Right click menu issues..on Drive,Folders and EXE files but not on JPG
Hello!
Just joined to try to get a nagging issue solved in Windows 10 Pro 64 bit .. Version 21H2 (OS Build 19044.1466).
I don't know when this issue quite got started, maybe after an update or a software install, it just seemed to appear recently since I never had this problem before. Went through with the Context Menu isolation scenario in ShellExView etc. and it seemed that disabling some caused a temporary PARTIAL fix but then went back to the same problem.
The problem is as follows. Anywhere I right click and try to get the properties of a Drive letter, any folder .. no matter whether on the Desktop or other folders, any EXE files I get the Windows Explorer to hang in an endless hourglass (blue circle) until I go to Task Manager and manually end task on Windows Explorer or Restart it.
The right click works for some reason on JPG/BMP files, MP3/WAV files, MID files and maybe several other file extensions, but not on the ones listed above.
I ran out of ideas ... did the SFC /scannow .. it is fine .. several other suggested checks .. they all came up negative. Help!
Thanks,
Zoltan
