它可以让您查看和禁用可疑的 3rd 方 shell 扩展。使用试错法，您可以禁用/启用扩展程序以尝试确定它们是否导致问题。ShellExView 也可用于解决Explorer中的上下文菜单问题，例如，如果右键单击很慢。
4]检查文件资源管理器的默认上下文菜单设置
在本地组策略编辑器(Local Group Policy Editor)中，此特定设置允许您 启用或禁用资源管理器中的上下文菜单(enable or disable the context menu in Explorer)。如果您错误地禁用它，则有可能在您的计算机上遇到此问题。因此，您需要使用以下步骤验证此GPEDIT设置：(GPEDIT)

- 按 gpedit.msc 并按 Enter 按钮。
- 转到 User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > File Explorer。
- 双击 删除文件资源管理器的默认上下文菜单 (Remove File Explorer’s default context menu )设置。
- 选择 未配置 (Not Configured )选项。
- 单击 确定 (OK )按钮。
之后，关闭所有窗口并检查是否可以右键单击桌面。
5]使用注册表(Registry)启用(Enable)上下文菜单
也可以使用注册表编辑器(Registry Editor)打开或关闭文件资源(File Explorer)管理器中的上下文菜单。如果您过去更改了设置，您将在 PC 上遇到右键单击问题。因此，请按照以下步骤验证注册表(Registry)值：
按 Win+R 打开运行提示。
输入 regedit > 点击 Enter 按钮 > 点击 Yes 选项。
导航：
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer

7]安装触摸板驱动程序
Windows 11/10笔记本电脑上遇到此问题，则需要安装触摸板驱动程序(install the touchpad driver)。如果您已经安装了它，请确保您拥有它的最新版本。
8]禁用鼠标管理器软件
市场上有一些 鼠标管理器(mouse manager)工具可以帮助您管理鼠标的按键或功能。如果此类工具在您的 PC 上产生问题，则有可能遇到此类问题。如果您之前安装了此类软件，那么现在是摆脱它的绝佳时机。您可以暂时禁用它并检查它是否解决了您的问题。
为什么我不能右键单击我的桌面？
无法右键单击桌面可能有多种原因。这可能是由于组策略中的错误设置、(Group Policy)注册表编辑器(Registry Editor)中的错误值、第三方软件等造成的。您需要按照上述所有指南来解决此问题。

Cannot right click on Desktop on Windows 11/10
If you cannot right-click on the desktop on Windows 11/10, follow these troubleshooting tips to fix the issue. Whether it is caused by malware, adware, wrong settings, or anything else, you can get rid of this problem using these solutions.
Cannot right-click on the Windows desktop
If you cannot right-click on the desktop on Windows 11/10, follow these suggestions:
- Check the mouse
- Restart File Explorer
- Check Explorer addons
- Check File Explorer’s default context menu setting in GPEDIT
- Enable context menu using Registry
- Disable Tablet mode
- Install Touchpad drivers
- Disable mouse manager software.
1] Check the mouse
It is probably the first thing you need to confirm. If your mouse has some issues with the buttons, you may end up wasting your time fixing it on your computer. It doesn’t matter if you have a wired or wireless mouse; you can connect it with another computer or open another program on your PC and check if right-click is working or not.
If it is working, only then follow other solutions. Otherwise, you need to fix your mouse and not your computer. You need to check the trackpad if you are using a laptop and unable to right-click on the desktop.
2] Restart File Explorer
If there is a bug causing this issue on your Windows 11/10 PC, you can restart the Windows Explorer process using Task Manager. For that, do the following:
- Press Win+X to open the menu.
- Select Task Manager from the list.
- Select the Windows Explorer process in the Task Manager.
- Click on the Restart button.
After that, close the Task Manager and check if it resolves your issue or not.
3] Check Explorer addons
Installed Add-ons are usually the culprit! Check if you have installed any helpers or add-ons to your explorer. Uninstall or disable them. Often, even 3rd-party shell extensions can cause Explorer to crash on particular actions. Several programs add items to the right-click context menu. To see them in detail, you may download the freeware utility ShellExView.
It will let you view & disable suspect 3rd party shell extensions. Using the trial & error method, you may disable/enable the extensions to try and identify if any of them are causing a problem. ShellExView can also be used for solving context-menu problems in Explorer, like, say, if the right-click is slow.
4] Check File Explorer’s default context menu setting
In Local Group Policy Editor, this particular setting lets you enable or disable the context menu in Explorer. If you disabled it mistakenly, there is a chance of getting this problem on your computer. Therefore, you need to verify this GPEDIT setting using these steps:
- Press Win+R to open the Run dialog.
- Press gpedit.msc and press the Enter button.
- Go to User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > File Explorer.
- Double-click on the Remove File Explorer’s default context menu setting.
- Choose the Not Configured option.
- Click the OK button.
After that, close all the windows and check if you can right-click on the desktop or not.
5] Enable context menu using Registry
It is possible to turn on or off the context menu in File Explorer using Registry Editor as well. If you have changed the setting in the past, you will confront the right-click issue on your PC. Therefore, follow these steps to verify the Registry value:
Press Win+R to open the Run prompt.
Type regedit > hit the Enter button > click on the Yes option.
Navigate to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
Double-click on the NoViewContextMenu DWORD value.
Set the Value data as 0.
Click the OK button.
Restart your computer.
In case you cannot find the NoViewContextMenu DWORD value, you need to create it manually. For that, right-click on the Explorer key, select the New > DWORD (32-bit) Value, and name it as NoViewContextMenu.
Close Registry Editor and restart your computer.

If you have enabled Tablet mode in Windows 10, you might face this problem on your PC. At times, the right-click doesn’t work in the Tablet mode. Follow this detailed tutorial to disable or turn off Tablet mode.
7] Install Touchpad drivers
If you get this problem on a Windows 11/10 laptop, you need to install the touchpad driver. In case you have already installed it, ensure that you have the latest version of it.
8] Disable mouse manager software
There are mouse manager tools available in the market that help you manage the keys or functions of your mouse. If such a tool creates issues on your PC, there is a chance of facing such problems. If you have installed such software earlier, it is an excellent time to get rid of it. You can disable it temporarily and check if it resolves your issue or not.
Why can’t I right-click on my desktop?
