Windows edit menu when right clicking on white in file list

Post by AlternativeShit »

It's all in the title :

Is it possible to show windows vanilla edit menu when right clicking on white in file list?

I'm sorry if it's already been asked, didn't find an answer anywhere :?

I think this is the "Edit" menu you are asking about:

Configuration | General | Custom Event Actions | Clicking on White >>
  
Right-click on white in file list == Pop up folder's context menu

Thanks for the quick answer!

I had already try that, but it doesn't show the same options as in windows explorer.

This is what I get in XYplorer :

And this is what I get in normal Windows Explorer :

No you can't show that menu, that menu contains a heap of items that wouldn't be functional in XY, like View, Sort/Group By etc., they are all Explorer specific, you need to use XY menus/functions to do those things.

Oh all right I see, thanks.

Is there a way to make a custom menu then?

Very new to all this ^^
