A way to change right click contextual menu?

Is there a way to change the right click contextual menu, so the first item is open in tabs? I use tabs more than windows, and in Chrome, the tabs option is 1st and not 2nd.

i have no reason to use the right click option so want to remove it. i am running vista ultimate 64 bit.
i am quite able to edit ofr delete aregistry line but searched throughout regedit and can't find it.
search on this forum turned up nothing... hard to believe no one asked this before on the forum.
google turned up a blank also.
thanx
Hi chevysales,
The logic is wrong. Go into Network Magic Options. On the General Tab, make sure that the following are not checked:
Do not add Network Magic Folders icon to Open/Save dialogs
Do not add commands to Explorer shortcut menus
Click OK and reboot the computer and see if gone.
I am running Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 3 on my Wireless Computer and I checked the Right-click menu and don't have the options, when they aren't checked.

Right-click contextual menu in Firefox 4: Is there a way to move/remove "Open in new tab?"

I don't really like tabbed browsing, but "Open in new tab" is the first choice in the right-click contextual menu. I would like to have "Open in new window" be the first choice.
So is there a way to edit the contextual menu to change the order of menu items or delete them entirely?
Thanks in advance.

This UI change is really stupid and useless. People got used to some specified menu items order. Changing this order could only annoy and anger.
Also the reload button has been relocated. This is another example of stupid Firefox 4 UI change. The good news is that it could easily be relocated to its original place.
It looks like the Firefox developers are suffering from idleness and boredom.
CHANGE IT BACK ASAP!!!

Right-Click/Contextual Menu Hang

Hi, for maybe a week now, Logic Pro 8 has been hanging every time I've right-clicked for about 30 seconds (every single time). I constantly check Console for any error messages, but nothing comes up, and I have no clue as to what the problem might be. Any help with troubleshooting or finding a solution would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I just started getting something similar on most pop-up menus in Logic Pro 8.0.2. It started with channel strip preset menus, but today I was getting it on channel inputs, plug-in preset menus and eventually even on insert effect menus and the Esc tool box! I click, nothing for 3-4 seconds, then a spinning beach ball for about 18-20 seconds more, then the menu comes up like nothing happened.
Nothing in Console here either. Activity Monitor shows one of my 8 CPU's peg to 100% during the lag. I have tried getting rid of two plug-ins I installed in the last month, verified all fonts and yanked the one I installed recently, repaired permissions, and cleared all caches using Onyx. Many full reboots. Everything is up to date.
Everything else works and plays perfectly, but this is seriously killing my happy flow. What the heck changed recently? QuickTime 7.5? Pro App 2008-02?

Right-click contextual menu appearance

This is an odd one. Not serious, but I'd like to find out why.
We have two new Macbook Air's. One has the standard configuration, the other the higher spec CPU & Ram. When the lower spec version right-clicks on the desktop using a two finger tap, the menu appear instantly. When the higher spec version does this, it takes between 0.25 and 0.5 second to appear. As I said, not a deal breaker, but why the difference? They both have similar things running in the background, similar things in the menu bar? Very little CPU being used, etc. Geekbench puts the higher spec one 1000 points better off so regardless of what background process is running it shouldn't make this kind of difference anyway. Can anyone offer a suggestion as to how I might ascertain what's causing the hold-up?

[CS3] TreeView Node Right click Contextual Menu

Fellow Developers,

Is there any way to prevent the right click context menu from combining Stop/Reload?

Is there any way (about:config tweak, or something) to prevent the right click context menu from combining Stop/Reload?
Screenshot of what I'm talking about: http://picsend.net/images/873089StupidReloadSto.png

I did try the add-on ''Menu Editor'' https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/menu-editor/ but even when I separate the navigation reload and stop icons and explicitly have both stop and reload set to be visible on the right click context menu I only get the one option showing.
Whilst there may be some way of changing this I do not know how to and I do not really see any use case for making such a change. Only one option of the choice: stop or reload, is available at any instance in time, but that is the option you are able to use, the other option is not active and so is not displayed.

Hi
Theoretically it could be done by modify registry. For example you could
modify right click menu on .exe file by changing values under
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\exefile\shellex\
However there are some problems that I cannot define that what kind of “file”
the network computer is.
And I found no article specific to this.
If you really need to restore your context menu and also need this update, I
suggest you uninstall this update first. Then back up your registry, install it
again. This time using process monitor you could record all registry modifications during
this update installation. It might take lots of work.
I tried to do that for you, unfortunately this update has been deployed in our environment which cannot be uninstalled from update history.

Right click context menu does not appear only for Java 1.7, AWT TextField

I have been debugging some issues that an application has been having with Java 1.7 versus older versions. A new problem I have encountered is that the right click context menu does not function in any TextField. It works fine when running/compiling it with any previous version of Java. I have tried coding a simple test with a Frame, Panel and TextField to see if it might be something else in the more complex application that was causing it, but the simple test class has the same problem.
I have searched for other people having the same issue, but I have not found anything comparable. This seems like a huge change from one version to the next and I am surprised that I am not finding this mentioned anywhere else. Can someone point me to anything that discusses this issue that I am having? Does 1.7 require I implement my own context menu? I realize AWT is old technology, but this is an old, fairly complex application that doesn't use swing, and that is not going to change at this point.
My simple test:
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.util.*;
class testF3 extends Panel
public static void main(String args[])
    Frame f = new Frame();
    Panel p = new Panel();
    f.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
    f.add("North", p);
    TextField tf1 = new TextField("", 20);
    p.add(tf1);
    Dimension medm = f.getSize();
    medm.height = 100;
    medm.width = 200;
    f.setSize(medm);
    f.setVisible(true);
}

In the past few days since upgrading to 4.0.4, the entire right-click context menu for links is gone and replaced with one item: "Copy Link" The "Open In New Tab" item, along with some other context items, is no longer there.
That's actually a problem with your particular installation of Safari, b. I've got all the contextual menu entries with my 4.0.4.
I helped fix one of these recently here at the forum. Try the procedure from the following post (it got back Tho's missing contextual menu entries):

"Save link as" in Right-click Context menu is not working properly.

Firefox 17: In a Google search, when I right click on a .pdf link, the popup window automatically gives a "url" filename and "Firefox Document" as filetype. Previously, the filename would be whatever it was on the website (ie. "filename.pdf") and the filetype would be "Adobe Acrobat Document".
I know this problem has less to do with Firefox and more to do with JavaScript, because the problem disappears if you disable JavaScript (Tools -- Options -- Content -- uncheck "Enable JavaScript"). What's happening is that JavaScript is somehow altering the link from a purely .pdf link to something else -- perhaps encasing the link inside a set of commands, and the computer is trying to save the command string instead of recognizing the link for what it is. When JavaScript is disabled in Google searches, the highlighted "[PDF]" link no longer appears in front of the link itself, and the "Save link as" function on the right-click works properly.
Any JavaScript junkies want to try their hand at creating a workaround? One that ensures that the reference created by the right-click context menu matches exactly what the filename is for the website?

The problem is that Google has an onmousedown attribute added to the links that modify a link if you click or right-click a result link to make the link point to a safe browsing check on the Google server.<br />
You can see that if you hover a link and you will notice that after you have (right) click a link the the URL changes to www.google.com/url?xxxxx.
You can use this bookmarklet to remove the onmousedown attributes.
<pre><nowiki>javascript:(function(){var e=document.querySelectorAll('*[id="search"] a[onmousedown]'),E,i;for(i=0;E=e[i];i++){E.removeAttribute('onmousedown')}})()</nowiki></pre>

Reader 9.1.3 Right click context menu

Good Morning,
We have deployed the Acrobat Reader 9.1.3 MSP Patch on our network to upgrade to the latest version. However, after the upgrade we are missing some functionality. In previous versions we were able to right click on a PDF(s) and have the option to "Print". With the new version those context menus seem to be missing. Was this a change done by the product? If so, anyone know why? And if not, does anyone know what I can do about re-adding this functionality?
Thank you for your time on this matter,

I put the following into a .reg file and this seems to work. Anything you see that could be wrong? It does bring back the "Print" option under the right click context menu.

NOTE This will kill ALL floatie Menus not just the one you mention.
Does anybody know, how it works for the main right click context menu?

Everything else is working normally, and the Yellow text is un related to windows itself, as Windows still has the standard coloring for the menus and Right click context. im stumped.

Hmmm, that shouldn't happen. It's difficult to change the text colors in the interface without installing a theme or an add-on that lets you tweak the menus.
Can you try switching between the default theme and your current theme?
Do any of those extensions let you change display settings?

Right-Click context menu is gone

Using Windows 7, Safari 4.0.4. I noticed recently that when I right-click on a link, I saw the link context menu and I used to be able to select "Open in new tab" This was great to use the mouse only to navigate, open new tabs, and surf around...using just the mouse.
In the past few days since upgrading to 4.0.4, the entire right-click context menu for links is gone and replaced with one item: "Copy Link" The "Open In New Tab" item, along with some other context items, is no longer there.
To be honest, this is pretty useless. If I'm only using the mouse, then this means that I have to:
1. Right Click on a link, select Copy Link
2. Right click in the tab bar and select "New Tab"
3. Click in the address bar of the new tab to select the field
4. Right-click in the address bar and select paste
5. And now I'm still having to use the keyboard to submit the address as there is no "Go" button for the address bar.
I know I can just Ctrl + Click a link to open in a new tab, but that requires the keyboard and the mouse.
I'm all for simple interfaces, but why did you take away the link's right-click context menu? It made surfing and opening tabs so easy using just the mouse.

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

Browser right click context menu

Hello Everyone,
I want to get the browser right click context menu in the WD Application when they are running in portal. We don't want the SAP Default context menu, which is confusing for our end-users. Is there a way of disabling this. I would appreciate your help.
Regards,
Gopal.

>Because, the iviews developed with WD JAVA will not have this option and the iViews with WD ABAP will have this special context menu. Which is not being consistent on the portal side for the end users.
You must be running an older version of Web Dynpro Java then, because later versions have the same right mouse click context menu.
You can't return to the browser context menu, because the application can also defined application-specific options in the WD Context Menu. It isn't just the stuff that is placed in there by the framework. You would be disabling Application specific funcitonality then. You can hide some of the framework options as suggested already in this forum, but you can't go back to the browser context menu.

A way to change right click contextual menu?
