How To Right Click Using Keyboard In Windows 7, 8, 8.1 and 10


The right click is the action of pressing the right button on a mouse or touchpad. When you right click on an item in Windows, it will usually open a context menu, drop menu, or jump list for additional options for that item.

Haven't we all experienced the maddening frustrations when our Mouse isn't working properly?
I know I have at times, but there is a stress relieving, workable solution to this.

Sometimes it is necessary to use your keyboard for this function.

Here's a few possible, YET NOT ALL , mouse malfunctions:
a) Wireless Mouse has dead batteries; no cursor arrow present
b) Wireless USB connection may be loose; no cursor arrow present, erratic movement
c) Optical lense on bottom surface is dirty; cursor arrow jumpy and erratic movements
d) Moisture or other substance on fingers; cursor arrow off and on, jumpy, erratic movements

This Tip will show you how to right click on files, folders, and drives in File Explorer or on your Desktop using a keyboard in Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10.



HERE'S HOW:

1. Pressing the Win + E on your keyboard to open File Explorer, select one or more items you want to right click on.

2. Press the Shift + F10 keys.

3. You can now perform one of the 3 actions below to select an item in the context menu.
(see screenshot below)

a) Look for the underlined letter in the context menu of the item you want to select, and press that letter on the keyboard.

b) Press the arrow keys to navigate to and highlight the item you want in the context menu, and press Enter to select it.

c) Click/tap on the item you want in the context menu.





That's it. Hopefully this won't be a long term solution for you until
you get your mouse back in operation. But it does come in handy when needed.
