D&D and R-C broken on one server, works on others

#1 Post by ThomasMcA » 07.02.2022, 14:31

I have FC installed on several servers. On one of them, two functions are broken:

1) Right-click on a file briefly displays a busy spinner, but then no menu appears
2) Drag and Drop between FC panes does not work.
a) Sometimes the click-and-drag is completely ignored
b) Sometimes the drag works, but hovering over the target pane displays a "cannot drop here" icon
c) If I open Win10 File Explorer, I can D&D between FC and Explorer (in both directions, and even to/from the "cannot drop here" folder) just fine.

First try the last release 860.

Problems with the context menu are often caused by installed shell extensions.
You can try to solve it with ShellExView: viewtopic.php?p=31934#p31934

It is not a context menu issue.

As a test, I installed a different 2-pane file explorer tool. Both D&D and the R-C menu work fine in that tool.

I also installed the 64bit donor version (build 852), and that has the same problem.
