Hi!

 My mouse is working fine, but when I right click on my PC's Start button to use 
Explore, I no longer get the "Explore, Search" box. 

Any idea how to get back that function?  Or what to check on my desktop?

Thanks for your help.

a) Have u installed a new program that might have added some "features"to your mouse context menu"? b) Have u installed anything lately? c) What happens when u right-click My Computer? My Computer in my experience normally works even if there might be mouse Context menu problems with other programs. d)Try uninstalling the few programs you recently installed one at a time while testing the context menu after each uninstall. If the mouse right-clicks after a programs u have just uninstalled, then that program might have had some "features" added to it like "Open with another program--" that may interfere with the Context menu.e) Bluetooth drivers are known to interfere with the Context menu. If you have a Bluetooth driver, temporarily uninstall it and see if the mouse problem continues. f) Try unloading a free software called ShellExView which monitors your context menu holders. I would not waste a second in downloading ShellExView, it has many supporters, including me, and it is free. Go to:http://snapfiles.com//opinions/ShellExView/ShellExView.html for comments on ShellExView and to:http:://www.softpedia.com/get/system/File-Management/ShellExView.sht for a short description of ShellExView. Have fun and best of luck.

Kiremerwa-Kato Simon -  Thank you very much for taking time to offer suggestions. 
My Start now has the  Explorer back in it.  

While going through procedures suggested, I opened
Taskbar Properties and  checked “Display Shortcut menu".  After that the Explorer 
returned. I thank you for your time and help.
