right click problem

[carlnw1975]

hey guys, i`m having issues with my mouse. the problem is when i got to right click to save a image or open a link in a new tab the right click does nothing. if i click a link with the left button sometimes it will open in a new tab. if i right click in my favourites it will work so i can open page in a new tab. it works fine on my desktop it just happens for saving online images and online embedded links.
i`ve run spyware scans and virus scans as well as restarting my pc and restore point but it does nothing. i`ve looked on my mouse settings and can see anything wrong there but it seems i`m missing something.
any help would be great

are you sure its a problem with the mouse? have you tried using another mouse?
which browser are you using?

just waiting on the scan to finish, i`m running on the new ie9 and i`ve tried 2 different mouses now and thats the same. do you think it could be ie9 related?

 

[koolkat77]

which antivirus are you using

 

[carlnw1975]

i`m using webroot antivirus and search and destroy antispyware

 

[koolkat77]

I'd suggest you to do a full scan with Microsoft Security Essentials - Free Antivirus for Windows
and post back results

 

[carlnw1975]

ok i`ll give that a go

well yes it could be a problem with ie9 but lets not get there now
do you have the any problem while using firefox or chrome?

 

[carlnw1975]

scan completed and nothing was found

 

[carlnw1975]

i don`t really like firefox or chrome, maybe it`s because i`ve not given them time and i`m just so use to using ie

could you just try using one of them to see if the same problem appears
* Delete all the history + Reset all zones to default level
* You could also try the reset options in >internet options>advance.

just tried firefox and it save images etc so looks like the problem is with ie9

i see
have you tried the steps in my other post

 

[carlnw1975]

yeah just done the reset option and still nothing happens, thing of going back ie8

 

[koolkat77]

try uninstalling and re installing ie9

 

[carlnw1975]

tried reinstalling it and even tried ie8 and it`s happening on that too now. this is very strange

 

[koolkat77]

maybe there's a registry fix for it,.. im not sure.
are you still using ie or using FF for the time being?

edit: may i know what error message do you receive when trying to save the image? or is the save image option greyed out?
you could also check this http://support.microsoft.com/fixit/ link and see if it solves any of your problem

 

[carlnw1975]

still no go, tried a reg fix and still the same thing happening, so i`m gonna keep on using firefox now i`ve transfered my favorites from ie. thanks for your time and help koolkat77

 

[koolkat77]

hmm so the mystery remains unsolved. well anyway, hope someone sees this post and got a valid fix for it & enjoy your new browser .
