Right click menu weirdness

Post by omier »

So there's another one of my weird problems.
Rather often when I empty my bin or whatever, the option I click from the right click menu just gets glued on the screen until I log off or restart.

Like that.
Spoiler!


Anyone else encountered this? It's kinda annoying. My bin is in the corner of the screen so that's not that bad, but sometimes it does it on stuff in the middle of the screen.

I have over 1500 of them atm. :)
Here's the link to that specific one with different sizes. Thankfully they don't add a stupid watermark to something that's not theirs like a lot of wallpaper sites do.

I'm not good at googling very specific problems such as this. :)
Thx. At least it's a quick way to remove it when it happens. Although there doesn't seem to be a way to completely fix it and prevent it from happening.

I don't know if it will work! But... If you never try you'll never know!

Solution: Go to Control Panel>System and Security>System>Advanced System Settings.

Advanced Tab – Click settings under Performance – Uncheck the box that say “Fade out menu items after clicking”

Oh and I have this other problem that the middle mouse button doesn't work most of the time. If I want it to register, I have to press and hold it down really hard. The mouse wasn't old at all when this started happening. That was also what happened to my previous wireless mouse before it died.

So I had to do that because it was getting really annoying. That fixed it.
But meanwhile I had got another problem:

Lol. To fix that I had to uncheck "Fade or slide menus into view".

Why not? Well, you could always consult with a cat. xD

Yeah, and it makes getting a new mouse a lot easier.

So I've found another problem now. Skype doesn't show me my chat history. There are those buttons in a conversation that allow you to view history from some period and stuff, there's also that right click option on a contact. But clicking any of those does nothing for me. It just won't show anything that hasn't been typed today. Fucking hell.

I think it would be easier to re-install windows when multiple weird problems start appearing.
So in the first week in college i went with jeans and the pajama's shirt. Didn't notice what i was wearing till after i returned home.

But I don't want to back up everything, that will take a very long time. :) Oh and speaking of Skype problems, I can't see most of my contact's display pictures. I only see a couple of them. That happened with the latest(or the one before that?) update.

So I used SkypeLogView to see my actual logs, and it appears it didn't even save any of my chat history, only file and call history. I deleted any Skype folders I had and reinstalled skype and now the display pics work again.
