The XY context menu items are missing. Not sure when it happened.
My configuration is like this:.
I have Show the 64-bit context menu option checked as well.
So I expect to see To Clipboard, Rename Special, Move/Copy/Backup To etc. In the context menu. But when I right-click, I get this:
I would really like to get my XY context menu items back. Have I overflowed or something by having too many other application context menus in there?
I have tried re-booting of course. Any ideas what could be wrong? Is there any troubleshooting actions I can take?

I did - and it's now OK!highend wrote:Remove that checkmark and try it againI have Show the 64-bit context menu option checked as well.
Should have tried that really, but having a 64 bit OS, it seemed logical to have it set.
Anyway, thanks for the tip. Case closed

Re: XY context entries missing
@Don: it seems this happens rather often since some time?
I think it would be helpful to give some information for this setting in Configuration.

Re: XY context entries missing
Hi
Although my original problem is fixed, I now realise that without the Show the 64-bit context menu option checked, then no 64 bit programs show up in the context menu.
So with XYplorer, it is possible to have XYPlorer's own options in the context menu, or 64-bit programs in the context menu, but not both?
Is this by design? Or a bug? Or maybe extra configuration is needed?

Re: XY context entries missing
You should have a context menu entry to get the x64 menu...

Re: XY context entries missing
Ah. Yes. I had saw that and tried clicking it, and you are right is does show the 64-bit entries. I thought that was a permanent change not a temporary one. But as I just found out, as soon as you go back and try again, the previous non 64-bit context shows.
I guess there must be a coding issue about displaying context entries from other 64-bit programs at the same time as your own.
Thanks for your help.
