Missing context menu

Post by gwm »

XYPlorer 64-bit 27.90.0041: In branch view (files only), when selecting two files from different folders and right-clicking, no context menu appears unless "Native context menu" is selected in settings. On selecting two files from the same folder, the system context menu appears as normal. With 32-bit 27.10.0600, even with "Native context menu" deselected, context menus appear in both situations--native or system depending on the selection.

Thanks for looking at this, highend. It took me a while to find out what was going on, but this only seems to happen within my Dropbox tree. Bizarre. With 27.10.066, I get this:

but with 27.90.0041 I see this (on right click):

When I select the two files in the same directory, I see this:

Maybe they are not resolved inside a junction

I just tested that but found no issues: multi-location context menu works well also when the files are under a junction.

So the case remains a mystery. :|
