Title: A very weird and annoying problem, presumably with Google Chrome (need help)
Post by: Ziley on January 09, 2014, 08:25:37 PM
Recently I've been running into problems that I think are related to Google Chrome (I have no evidence, but it seems to only happen whenever the browser is open, even though I have not done any extensive testing). Basically, sometimes when I right click stuff to, say, copy a picture (and it doesn't seem to matter if I do it in chrome or on my desktop, as long as chrome is running in the background) the right-click option that I choose will sometimes stick around. It's not clickable, but it seems the only way to remove it is to completely reboot my computer. I'll attach a picture of the problem and I hope someone else has either encountered this or knows of a fix, 'cause google has not been of much help (probably because I have no idea how to word it in a short search phrase).

Anyways, thanks in advance :)

Notice the little box that says "Kopier".

Perhaps try any of these solutions? (http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-desktop/right-mouse-click-menu-stuck-on-desktop/0e19ccc3-ed2c-4eb2-a136-7aa191ea001c)

Definitely caused by that shocking wallpaper.

I jest. Tried doing a clean display driver re-install?

I had a similar issue a while back on my Elitebook, updating drivers sorted it out, changing wallpaper would help a lot too

Seems like the link you provided fixed it for me, Hal. Thanks for the input everyone, but I think I'll stick with the wallpaper :boxing: ;)

Terrible team, I sometimes have a similar issue when playing football manager 2014 windowed and browsing.
