    Neither of those worked. Interesting. Anything else you care to try? It's not a pressing manner, I don't right-click on my desktop much, I just like to figure things out instead of leaving them as is.
    The only other thing I can suggest is to try a repair install.

    Interesting that you have WinRAR highlighted in ShellExView.

    There is a known issue involving WinRAR and the context menu, involving 32-bit and 64-bit dlls. In WinRAR, disable shell integration. Test. Report.

    Hey mate,

    I had the exact same issue as you are having. Scoured the internet for hours, still no avail. I then uncovered an excellent post (cited below) with my fix.

    The issue lies within Nvidia and their Nvidia Display Manager.

    Possible Solution:
    *BACKUP YOUR REGISTRY! - You always need a backup when you modify your registry! (Registry - Backup and Restore)
    *Go to your start menu
    *In the search type "regedit" and hit enter
    *Browse to "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\ContextMenuHandlers"
    *Locate "NvCplDesktopContext"
    *Right click on "NvCplDesktopContext" and select "delete"
    *Close regedit...
    *Right click on your desktop!

    Now, if you are like me and you want it to WORK and not lag, follow the following steps:
    *BACKUP YOUR REGISTRY! - You always need a backup when you modify your registry! (Registry - Backup and Restore)
    *Follow the above steps first --- then proceed below
    *Go to your start menu
    *In the search type "regedit" and hit enter
    *Browse to "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell"
    *Right click on "Shell" and add new key. Name the key "Nvidia Control Panel"
    *Right click on your newly added key and name it "Command"
    *Double click the newly created "Command" key and enter into the Default Value "c:\windows\system32\nvcplui.exe"

    Viola, it should work. Post back and let us know if this or the above were solutions.
