Problems with right-clicking are often caused by third-party software that
puts an entry into the right-click context menu. The way to troubleshoot is
to remove the non-Microsoft third-party entries. The free ShellExView is
the easiest way to do this. Also, you should ask yourself The First
Question Of Troubleshooting: If the problem is new, what changed between
the time things worked and the time they didn't?

Manage the context-menu entries for folders, drives and Namespace objects -
