right click hang computer.

H

Hi.

Every time I right click, my computer (Windows XP) would hang. I
removed hot fix KB821557 and that fixed the problem. However, after
one week, I updated Windows and the problem seem to reoccur again. I
tried looking for the KB821557 hot fix, but it's not on my computer.

I have searched through all the news groups and found no solutions. I
even tried
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;819101.

Here is a list of hotfixes on my computer:
Windows Media Player Hotfix (see 0828026)
Windows XP Hotfix (SP2) (see 00329048)
Windows XP Hotfix (SP2) (see 0329115)

Windows XP Hotfix (SP2) (see 0329834)

Also remove #840374. It caused the right-click problem on mine as well as
821557.

Thanks for letting me know!!!

Unfortunely, I used the "Last Good Know Configuration", since I have
other problems beside this one.


Thanks!!

GOT MINE TO WORK!!!

I removed:
821557
839643
840374
835732

Right click started working again (took 1 minute for the menu to show
up.

Reinstalled:
839643
840374
835732

Downloaded xptweakui and went through the items. I deleted most of the
right click context items (I don't use them).

WOW right click is now FAST!!!

Installed 821557

Right click still works.

Hope this helps.

Man what a pain this has been.

I wonder if one of the items in the right click menu was bad. It would
be interesting if someone could try using the xptweakui and delete
most of the right click items and see if that solved the problem
without having to go through what I did (before removing the service
packs).


Just glad to have mine back......


whew.....
