Published on November 4, 2006 By Beesley In RightClick
I've never had this happen before but Rightclick crashed. Then when I re-loaded it, it came up empty. When I tried to add new items to make it like it was before, it loaded everything in horizontally instead of vertically, giving me this big long line across the screen from left to right instead of top to bottom. Any idea how that happened or how I could fix it?
Thanks.

I'm getting this also. It's on version 1.20, build 739. Only has a Horizontal display now. Plus any changes I save are lost on reboot.

Did SD respond to this? Mine has started showing the same symptoms. Unintall/reinstall hasn't fixed it.

Can anyone (or preferably SD) react to this thread and give the solution? I also am faced with this issue for a couple of weeks and unable to correct this. For some reason reinstalling is not the solution.

this has just happened to me too, in exactly the way described by Beesley...

no matter how i try to un-install then re-install, i cannot get rightclick working properly...

any news on a fix or how we can reset rightclick?

thanks

I haven't used right click - does it have a cache that may need clearing?

No Bichur, I'm using rightclick & no cache file found And no problems so far

Although I havent experienced the horizontal problem they are describing - its definatly an oddity. I have had certain WB skins cause strange events with Rightclick. Even if you delete the WB and reinstall it, its best to go into RightClick folder >
WBSkinImport >SkinRepository. Then delete the contents of skinrepository. That has cleared up issues for me when Object bar refused to import.

Was worth a shot Liquid - it works for some problems but this horizontal thing is plain weird. I know you said you tried uninstalling /reinstalling..a while back I recall a link to a tool to removal of Stardock programs..perhaps Bichur might recall the link..I used to have it but FF crashed and lost my links back then.. This "tool" removed all traces of uninstalled Stardock programs so you could reinstall them....I really don't know if this would help you or not.

I would be lost without my ' Rightclick' program and its a program I wish stardock would go a bit further with ...like make it possible to create transparent menus etc. The built in transparency slider is ok but it also makes text transparent...

Im sure there are more out there that have had this horizontal problem but just gave up on it.

Thanks very much for the suggestions and links, but, alas, no change. after downloading the odnt zapper, running it, un-installing rightclick, then re-installing, still no luck..i still get the horizontal thing happening...
