Missing Context Menu

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.help_and_support (More info?)

When right clicking on items on the All Programs menu,
a context menu pops up then vanishes.
How can I restore the context menu to the All Programs menu?


Thanks in Advanced

If no shortcut menu appears and the menu flashes, the Enable Dragging And Dropping
check box has been cleared. This option enables shortcut menus and the drag-and-drop
capability.
To enable the option, right-click the Start button, choose Properties, and then click
Customize. If you're using the default Start menu, click the Advanced tab and then,
in the Start Menu Items box, select Enable Dragging And Dropping.
(If you're using the classic Start menu, the option appears in the Advanced Start
Menu Options box in the Customize Classic Start Menu dialog box.) "S. Taylor"
