Hi,

I´m new to Nexus. I´ve configured my desired docks with their icons but I have a problem with Explorer icon.
In Windows taskbar when I right click on the Explorer shortcut I see a list of quick access links which I dont see while right clicking in the dock icon.
For example when I right click the Start icon (in Nexus dock) I do see the context options of the Start button.

Thanks

Are you running the free version of Nexus, Nexus Ultimate or Winstep Xtreme ?

What version?

If you right click on the shortcut to the Windows Start Menu in the dock (if you right click on it and select Dock Entry Properties the dialog should say Internal Command, "Start Menu", if not please post a screenshot) you should see the following:

As I said the Start menu icon works ok, the problem is with Windows Explorer shortcut.
I have v25

Ah, apologies, my mistake, I read that as "I do not see" :D

Open the Dock Propertied dialog for any dock (left click the Nexus control icon in a dock or right click any other item -> Nexus -> Dock Properties), go to the Behavior tab, is "Show full right-click context menu options' enabled?

If it is, then right clicking a shortcut to a folder in the dock should give you the same right click entries as right clicking that item in Explorer.

However, if you are talking about taskbar "Jumplists" (e.g. documents associated with a specific application, recent files, etc) then that is not supported yet. I think that is exactly what you mean.

Either way, can you please post a screenshot of the Item Properties dialog for one of the problematic items so I know what we are really talking about?
