Right Click in a shortcut doesn't show explorer's menu, only OD menu

from Stardock Forums

Hello.

I'm new using OD 2.0 and i feel dissapointed because this version have disabled the ability to see the explorer's context menu when you right click a shortcut, now if you do this, only appear three options: Settings, Open "Shortcut Title", Remove icon.

In version 1.90 when you right click. the explorer's context menu is displayed in, addition, in the bottom of this context menu appears the OD options.

Please, if this is a bug, fix it, if this is not a bug its a really bad idea, is really sad, reimplement it.

Thanks for your time.

Shift right click for explorer menu.

Thanks for your reply.

However this new method is stupid, because they are doing that the easy things become complicated.

There any way that this menu be deployed without the need to use the shift key?

I`m not saying that the method is hard, however, i thinks is stupid.

If you're used to the Windows environment, it is normal to right click an icon, access the contextual menu of windows itself, moreover, at least in that stupid menu, you should receive a notice explaining how to access the menu own windows, I could only know of this method through this forum that the program does not explain that, and so should not be.

Yep, I agree 100%. The way they changed the menus in 2.0 has been mentioned by others but I don't recall seeing a reason for the change being stated by Stardock.
