Windows 10 x64 right-click issue

Hi Vlasta,
I've re-installed PicResizer after upgrading to Win 10 and found that right-click functionality is a little odd. Context menu is not showing any option to resize when I right-click on the file, however I discovered that the option IS showing when I right-click on the containing folder.
Have you any tips on how this might be fixed??
Thanks for you're work on this. I love this little app!
:-)

Hi, I have same issue - any resolution?

It works on my Windows 10 Pro x64 (1709 update), but just tried on another PC and it shows on the Folder as you say, but not the JPG file.

I suspect it's not PicResizer's fault.
Had the same problem as backd00r, but it started one day with no apparent reason. After a while, I realized it started after I changed the default jpg viewer to EXIFpro Image Viewer. Changing the default viewer to Photos or any other, the resize commands were back to the context menu.
I understand EXIF messes up the Registry keys which include the PicResize commands in jpg's context menu. So, it should be not used as the default viewer.
Hope this helps.

I stand corrected. Photos also does away with the PicResize commands for images. The only app I found so far that doesn't interfere with the context menu for images is Windows Photo Visualizer.
However, in all cases the PicResize context menu for Folders is preserved.
There must be some protocol which older apps did not implement concerning the context menu for "perceived" file types.
