Context Menu removed by 9.5.4 Update

I have Acrobat 9.0 Pro installed on a Windows 8 machine (Pro 64-bit) and noticed the context menu (combine files) was removed by the 9.5.4 update. As a sanity check, I removed the program (needed adobe cleaner - did not appear on installed programs) and reinstalled from CD. Context menu OK. First auto update was to 9.2.0. Conext menu OK. Next auto update was to 9.5.4. Context menu removed, and the Acrobat Elements directory also disappeared.

Acrobat 9 Context Menu removed by Auto Update

I have Acrobat 9 installed on a Windows 8 64-Bit system and from the Explorer context menu has been removed by the latest update (i.e. combine files). I removed Acrobat and reinstalled it from the CD as a sanity check, and the context menu was there in 9.0 and 9.2, but the next automanted update brought it to 9.5.4 and the context menu was removed. From the web, there's supposed to be a contextmenu.dll registered under the "Arcrobat Elements" directory - it was there in 9.0 and 9.2, but after the update to 9.5.4, the directory was removed.

Nothing in that folder. And nothing in the left finder frame regarding Blue Harvest...To clarify, I am talking about when in Finder and select a folder and then right click for the pop up menu with 'Open, Move to Trash, Get Info,...,Clean Using Blue Harvest..."

Why did Word on Office 2013 REMOVE Auto Correct from Right-Click Context Menu??

Hi Microsoft -
I normally don't rant, but this is a killer feature removal, and the reason given is for aesthetics - 'Removal of clutter" is how it's worded here:
[Changes in Office 2013]
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc178954(en-us).aspx
I copy n pasted below the operative row from the linked TechNet page as to the reason WHY this critical (and very popular feature) has been removed from Microsoft Office 2013 Word's context-menu: LESS CLUTTER
And your answer is ambiguous and doesn't solve the issue that you created to make things prettier: "Click the AutoCorrect Options button" Then what? ADD EACH WORD MANUALLY?
Please advise ALL OF US that want this feature back how to have our commonly misspelled words fixed and added automatically to the dictionary. If I am missing this in a major way somehow, I apologize completely and will issue a public apology via any
social media platform of your choice. If it really is gone, and I have to manually add the entries into a buried table 6-clicks deep, then I will issue a public excoriation of this feature on as many social platforms of my choice.
Sincerely,
Maximus Mednick

Modifying the feature
Auto-Correct and certain formatting tools are no longer available from the spelling error context menu.
To make Word 2013 cleaner and less cluttered, we removed AutoCorrect and certain formatting tools from the spelling error context menu. The features are still available in Word 2013 through other entry points within the Word user interface.
Less clutter in the spelling error context menu. This enables users to find popular commands more quickly. In addition, the spelling error context menu now fits better on the screen.
To change AutoCorrect options, do the following:
Choose File -> Options -> Proofing
Choose the AutoCorrect Options button.

Microsoft used to be about allowing users to customize the OS and apps however they want. This was one reason I have always preferred Windows over Mac. There are 5 ways to do any one thing, and you can customize it to do it however you want. It's all about
user choice. Please don't go the way of Apple and force users into the way that you *think* we should do things.
<rant>
While I whole heartedly agree with this suggestion, if you look through this blog about the design decisions that went into the 2007 ribbon:
Jensen Harris: An Office User Interface Blog -
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/jensenh/archive/2008/03/12/table-of-contents.aspx
You'll see that one of the considerations of the ribbon was to ELIMINATE/REDUCE customization because it was costing large corporate customers too much time/money to support their users with 2003 customized menu/toolbars. In other words, the ribbon
was intentionally built as a fixed design so that average user cannot change it. The QAT was an afterthought, a sop, to allow users minimal customization.
They found that the 2007 lock down was too much of a "good thing", too much like the good old "IBM 360 green screen" (even if most people don't recognize the reference), so in 2010 they
re-introduced limited Ribbon customization within the UI.
But you still can't customize the default tabs. And to add injury to insult, if you do want to customize a default tab and go to the effort of trying to recreate the default tabs and groups
within the Ribbon UI, you'll eventually find that YOU CAN'T'! There is no way inside the UI to force the buttons to layout the same way! AHHH!
Even in 2007,
EXPERTS have had the option of creating custom Ribbons/tabs by editing XML, but that is pretty serious programming, out of scope for 99% of users.
The "solution" to the problem was too simple. Just add an option to allow users to turn on the old menu UI. Even if it had been buried as a registry hack, the people who really wanted it would have learned about it. Then MS could have collected statistics
on usage that would have "proved" that the menu was preferred over the ribbon. The thing is, if the ribbon was defaulted "out of the box", over time people would eventually all switch over to it. Simply because it was the default, because MS only produced
new training material referring for the ribbon
Now, I'll concede that the ribbon really may be more "intuitive", but only for new users. For long time users the change is very jarring.
They made the same choice with Windows 8. In the last Windows 8 consumer Preview there was a registry hack to bypass the Start Screen. I learned about it in July or August. But MS was so sure the Start screen/metro was the only way to go they
rushed out a Windows Update to eliminate that registry entry. And it was eliminated from the RTM version.
WHY?
Why did they remove the user's right to chose the UI that worked best for them? I don't know.
</end rant> sorry, this is a hot button for me.

Update for RDP 8.1 Windows 7 SP1 changed explorer right click context menu

I have a 4 pcs and 3 nas drive on my network. previous to the update I could view my pcs and nas drives in explorers right pane left click one and access the folders on it. since the update I can no longer do this because "remotedesktopconnection"
has been added as the default (previously it was "open") to the right click context menu. can someone help me change this back so when I right click a network computer icon in explorer I only see:
open
AND NOT                              remotedesktop
open in a new window                                                                                       open
create shortcut                                                                                                 open
in a new window
                                                                                                                       create
shortcut
the exact update that makes the change is: kb2592687

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.

Remove or Hide context menu item "Add More Items..."

Hi,
I'm trying to edit UserChrome.css to remove or hide the context menu item "Add More Items..." that you find under the sidebar menu.
Thanks.

Firefox doesn't come with this item, so it must be added by an extension.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

My context menu no longer has the options to delete, remove etc.

My context menu no longer has some of the options it used to have. I have disabled a number of add-ons to solve the problem, but it didn't work. I don't find options like opening the link in a different window or tab useful. Could you please tell me how I can change my context menu that has options of deleting, renaming, removing, editing a tab or a folder in my email account (Yahoo)?
Thank you.

Web pages can replace the context menu to their own version and suppress the regular context menu.
You can set the dom.event.contextmenu.enabled pref to false on the about:config page to prevent web pages from modifying the right-click context menu.

After you install the Acrobat X 10.1.10 update on 64-bit Windows 7, the Acrobat context menu choice is corrupted on Windows Explorer.

Apparently this is a recurrent bug with updates, e.g. some people had problems with an older update too (Acrobat X context menu missing | 64-bit Windows 7)
Running: regsvr32 "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat Elements\ContextMenu64.dll"
reports success, but nothing changes, the Windows Explorer context menu still shows blanks for Acrobat/no text (though clickable and launches Acrobat) Other context items are fine.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, J

Hi Jed27,
Please try repairing Acrobat and check if it rectifies the issue.

Hi,
I'm using Jdev 11.1.2.2.0 and i've af:tree with node as command link. If i click this link, the popup in context menu facet is launched with menu items which are created by me. Also it displays menu item like 'Collapse', 'Expand All Below' and 'Collapse All Below. I do not want these menu items. Could anyone tell me how to remove these menu items?
Thanks in advance

You can add a showPopupBehavior to your commandLink, with triggerType="contextMenu", make sure not to keep the popup in contextMenu facet of af:tree

TableView Context Menu Item shows up when run on Java 8 until update 5 but not on later ones

 contextMenu.getItems().add(new MenuItem("append"));
 table.setContextMenu(contextMenu);
 table.setRowFactory(tableView -> {

 .otherwise((ContextMenu) null));
 return row;
 Scene scene = new Scene(table);
 stage.setScene(scene);
 stage.show();
 private ContextMenu showOnlyAppendContextMenuItemIfRowIsEmptyElseIncludeDelete() {
 ContextMenu rowMenu = new ContextMenu();
 ContextMenu tableMenu = table.getContextMenu();
 if (tableMenu != null)
 rowMenu.getItems().addAll(tableMenu.getItems());
 rowMenu.getItems().add(new MenuItem("delete"));
 return rowMenu;

 private final SimpleStringProperty name;
 private Name(String name) {
 this.name = new SimpleStringProperty(name);
 public String getName() {
 return name.get();
 public void setName(String name) {
 this.name.set(name);
Can help me find the error in the code? Or if there is none, is this a regression that should be submitted? As of now, all the PCs in use have 8u5.
Thanks in advance.

The fix is to create new menu items that are copies of the ones in the table's context menu:
private ContextMenu showOnlyAppendContextMenuItemIfRowIsEmptyElseIncludeDelete() {
ContextMenu rowMenu = new ContextMenu();
ContextMenu tableMenu = table.getContextMenu();
if (tableMenu != null) {

rowItem.setGraphic(item.getGraphic());
rowItem.setOnAction(item.getOnAction());

UWL Removing detail area menu/context menu that appears on each item/task

Hi
On the MSS Universal Worklist on the Portal(EP7 SP14)(ESS MSS 600 SP11, ECC 6), how can I remove the context menu(detail area menu) on each item/task. The options for the menu are Forward and Resubmit.
I understand(I stand corrected) that it is on uwl.standard xml file where this menu can be removed. Im not too sure what to change on this file.
Your help is much appreciated and points will be rewarded if your answer works.
Kind regards

Hi Andy
Thank you for your quick response. I have added the necessary actions to the "List of UWL Actions to exclude" property, and this sorted out my problem.
Thank you - I have given you points
