Minor problem

[MiKe85]

When you right click the mouse...
I should be able to get
Active desktop
Arrange icons
Line up icons
Refresh
Paste
Paste shortcut
New
&
properties

Right now i don't have "new" so i can't make new folders, new zips, etc...Does anyone know how to fix this?
I'm running Win98 2nd edition...

Well, that is weird. Of course, it you title your post "Minor Problem" you'll likely get no replies. Suggest you repost with new title -- "END OF THE WORLD!!!"

Also, check your Win.ini file does it read -
[Desktop_Shell]
Current=Win

Don't know how it could change or if it even makes any difference, just thought I'd mention it.

I would suggest downloading TweakUI. It allows you to add all sorts of things to the right click menu.

PS. I just realized you are right clicking on your desktop. Try opening Explorer and right clicking files in there to see what is on your menu.

You might also go to the folder in windows /desktop. right click and remove customization, you may have disabled it by accident. WoW anybody ever clicked on enable thumbnails... ??
BTW, does the word new show up and not work, or show up shadowed out, or not show up at all?
Forgive the spelling, sysopts spell ck doesn't work, and neither does my brains. http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif
