Chrome can't right click

Dist · 19 May 2013 at 00:24

I've already made a thread on the chrome support forums (https://productforums.google.com/fo...blem-and-get-troubleshooting-help/bF8nTMveUAg) but not had a response yet so hoping someone here may be able to help.

For some reason I noticed today that I can't right click on a webpage, it just pops up the option box but then instantly vanishes so I only see it for a split second. I can right click 'chrome' itself, such as the top to reopen closed tabs, minimize/close, open the chrome task manager etc..., I can right click the URL bar, and the bookmark bar below it, I can right click YouTube videos and Twitch.tv streams but when I try to right click somewhere on a web page it simply flashes the normal right-click box for a fraction of a second.

I've tried disabling all extensions, Chrome says it's up to date, I've tried closing and re-opening it, all to no success. So if anyone has any suggestions I'd like to hear them as I use right click for a lot of things.

Not too helpful I know but running the latest Chrome in Win 8 Pro x64 and the right click works great

Have you un-installed and re-installed?

I have the same issue with various MS apps. Works fine using the right-click on my touchpad, but my optical mouse has problems, A driver update helped correct it.

Thank You! It seems to have been my Logitech Gaming Software causing the issue (I use a G600, so the software manages the button mapping of the dozen buttons it has). I tried to right click it in the notifications part of the start menu and it crashed, so something was obviously wrong

seems to be working now that I've restarted it though.
