Right-click bug on the desktop

Solved

Hello, I have a clicking issue on the desktop.
I'm on Windows 10, and I just reset my PC.
Everything was working fine before, but now, when I try to right-click on my desktop to create a folder for example, the cursor changes to a loading icon, and it only opens the small dropdown menu with all the options after a certain amount of time (rather long...). This kind of right-click issue only occurs ON the desktop, and not in other applications and software.

I don't know what the problem is, but if anyone has a solution, I'm all ears.

    The right-click problem on the desktop was caused by Nvidia, I uninstalled and reinstalled it and now it works.

    Hi,

    See here: https://www.malekal.com/plantage-explorer-exe-clic-droit/
    Use Autoruns and uncheck all the context menus.
    See what happens afterwards.

      I tried to do what you did in your tutorial, but it's not working... I want to clarify that this bug only occurs on the desktop when I click on the wallpaper.
