File context menu doesn't work on 4.5.1766

(1/2) > >>

Kreator:
I press right mouse button, see a rolling cursor for 2 seconds and then the MC window goes back and some other window appears on top. But no menu. If I press RMB on a folder, everything works OK.
On version 4.4.1725 menu works right. Can't tell you, when it appeared, couldn't get previous beta version. But I haven't notice such behavior before. Ask, if you need any additional info.
Thank you.

That is strange, nothing about that has changed since last version.
It works for me. so it is not a general error..

What if you press the "context menu" key on the keyboard.. (the key too the right of the right windows key)
Is it on all files or only on some file type  ?

You say "Some other window appears" can that be the menu that popup but goes away directly ? or is it something completely different

Kreator:
I think I know now how to reproduce. It's not 4.5 problem, it starts earlier.
Run MC, minimize all windows (either with RMB or with WIN+D or with button in right bottom corner of the screen), then activate MC (with mouse or keyboard) and try context menu on any file. Don't change dir, just try to get menu (with mouse or keyboard). If you change dir, everything will work OK, but just after activating MC window, file context menu will not show.
I noticed, that menu won't show for files, that have icons or/and registered program to open with. However, *.exe menu will show OK. If I try *.inf, *.ini, *.txt and other registered filetypes, the menu won't be shown. If  Itry *.bak, *.tmp or other unknown types - the menu will be shown.
Hope it helps.

Can't reproduce it here.

Was it the same if you used the keyboard conextmenu button ? if you show other popup menu in other places do they also auto close  ?

Very weird kind of steps. Do you have any program that hook them self into windows like autohotkey or some other tool that intercepts windows calls. ?
There is no logic why MC should cancel the popup directly when it is shown. it only happens if anohter windows get input focus so that the popup is losing focus.

Kreator:
I've made video with all actions.

Don't worry it's an exe, uvScreenCamera makes a container with player and video in exe format.
Note, that when I press call context menu, the current language indicator in the right bottom corner disappears and then appeares again. If I don't minimize all windows, the indicator won't disappear and all works fine. Doesn't matter what you use - keyboard or mouse, result is same. Menu doesn't appear only on those files - registered file types, not executable and not folder. All other places it works OK. If there is other window opened, the focus goes to it.
I don't use any key-hooking programs.
No idea about what happens. Why menu popups so long? In Explorer it appeares fast. Maybe it's because the menu is called some other way than usual?
