I installed Windows 7 64 bit. Earlier, I had the 32-bit Windows. After installing 64-bit Windows, right-clicking the Start Menu items doesn't bring up the context menu! How do I fix this?

Hell! My W7 64bit works fine. I have context menu. But there are two items only. Do you really need it? – Vasiliy Borovyak Aug 8 '10 at 12:35

Can't reproduce. – Joel Coehoorn Aug 8 '10 at 14:19
Check mouse drivers maybe. I have been running Windows 7 since early beta on several machines and have never had this issue. – MrStatic Aug 8 '10 at 15:04

Right click on Start then choose Properties. On Start Menu tab, choose Customize > check "Enable Context Menus and dragging and dropping". Click Ok then "Apply" > OK. That's it.
