Title: shell extensions causing issues win10
Post by: mrboonmee on August 03, 2016, 01:36:38 pm

using Windows 10 anniversary update and when shell extensions are enabled for J Rver my right click start menu is useless. as soon as I disable J River shell extensions it works again.

MC 22.0.14

using ShellExView to enable/disable.

I have the same issue.  Win-X (start power menu) would not work.  The menu appears appropriately; however, only a few select commands actually work (search, run, shut down and desktop).  Shut off MC shell extensions: everything works perfectly.  Turn MC shell extensions back on: doesn't work again.

MC 22.0.12  with Win 10 Anniversary upgrade.  Don't remember the problem before updating MC and Win 10 but may not have not noticed.

I have had this issue since installing Windows 10 last year, and disabled the MC shell extension long ago.

Since I have updated to the Anniversary Edition of Windows 10 and JRiver version 22, thought I'd try again. Enabled and rebooted -- the problem still exists.

I've had this problem since first upgrading to windows 10. I solve it by uninstalling and re-installing MC. I've had to repeat this since upgrading to the anniversary update.

Could be be doesn't seem like it.  The shell extension problem happens "always" and is 100% instantly repeatable.  The start menu problem only happens after longer MC play times.

I never used the Win+X-menu much, but I tried now, I can also reproduce this problem. (exactly as amsco15 describes it)

Yes, this is easily reproducible as described.

on my system Win10 1493.82, Enable Shell Integration is enabled and no shell integration. I disabled it a while back when it caused problems. confused.

Appdata from many older versions of MC still lurking after uninstalling those.
