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 ^^
