Re: Get stuck after right click
Running Everything as administrator can cause a slow right click context menu.
Please make sure Everything is installed correctly and running as a standard user:
If that doesn't help, please try disabling context menu shell extensions.
Copy and paste the following into your Everything search box:
Press ENTER in your Everything search box.
If successful, context_menu_shell_extensions=0 is shown in the status bar for a few seconds.

- Check Everything Service. (Please make sure this is tick-checked and not square-checked)
