Right Click Menu (Context Menu) lags by 0.5 seconds

Sushant_

The context menu seems to always lag a little when right clicked. It bothers me a lot. Why does it happen? How do you fix it, if a fix is possible?

Hi@Sushant_ 

This could be issue with windows update or poorly coded Context Menu handler (added by a 3rd party program) might cause any of the above symptoms. Context Menu handler is a type of shell extension that adds commands to your right-click menu.

Please download: ShellExView - Shell Extension Manager For Windows

This program does not require installation, just right click and run as Administrator

From the menu, click on Options then click on Filter by Extension Type and select Context Menu

On the list, you'll see some of the entries with pink background, those are installed by the third party software

Hold down CTRL Key and select all of them then click on the red button on top left corner to disable.

Click on the Options again and select Restart Explorer

Now try to right click on desktop to see if it fix your problem. If it does then start to enable one by one and repeat step 5 until the problem occurs again, that's the offending extension.

Please post back the result.
