Feature Request: Add a Keyboard Shortcut for the Context Menu

[total_annihilation00]

In many Windows applications, pressing Shift+F10 opens the context menu, just like right-clicking. Could this shortcut be added to MC ? It would also be helpful to allow users to customize the shortcut key for opening the context menu (MC V17).

Do you know the context menu key to the right of the right Windows key?

Shift+F10 work in MC. There is actually not a specific Shift+F10 connection in MC for context menu, Pressing Shift+F10 triggers a WM_CONTEXTMENU message to be sent, and MC will act on that.. it is the standard Windows keyboard shortcut to trigger this message. controlled by Windows.

My keyboard doesn't have the right Win and CM keys, it instead has Fn and Copilot keys. At the moment Copilot can not officially be remapped (in Windows 11) to CM.

Yeah I could but the thing is, I have the AppMenu key (the right-click key) re-assigned to open Launchy (via an AutoHotkey script) so I would like to be able to use Shift+F10 key instead for right-clicking !

Oh you're right, it does work ! I had accidentally set Shift+F10 to "Stop Playing Audio File", that's why it wasn't working !
