SYMPTOMS
When you use the right mouse button to click the root object in Windows Explorer, a context menu is not displayed. However, a context menu is available for all other objects in Windows Explorer.
RESOLUTION
To work around this behavior, change the root object for Windows Explorer by adding the /root, <object> parameter to the Windows Explorer command line. Set the root object so that the object for which you want a context menu is no longer the root object.
NOTE: Desktop is the default root object in Windows Explorer. To view a context menu for Desktop, use the right mouse button to click the Desktop folder in the folder where Windows 95 is installed on your computer.
STATUS
This behavior is by design.
