Can't right click star bar in boot camp windows

[zylander]

I use to have 32-bit vista ultimate as dual boot on my mbp, now I'm runing windows 7 pro. In both operating systems I could not right click the start bar or task bar. Right click worked everywhere else but not on the start bar. Anyone ever had this happen or know the fix?

Right click how? On a Mac in bootcamp, you have quite a few choices available to you to right click.

In the bootcamp settings menu in windows I have right click set to two fingers. When I click the track pad with two fingers anywhere on the desktop the right click menu comes up. If I do the two finger click anywhere on the start bbar or task bar it does not register as a right click just as a normal click. Because of his I can not get into the start menu properties window, I can not unlock the task bar and I can not close programs from the task bar by the clock.

Have you tried "ctrl+click"?

Does it also not work with a USB mouse?

Mine does this too.

If you go into your bootcamp prefs in control panel and set your mouse to also secondary click with one finger at the bottom right of the trackpad that will allow you to right click on the taskbar.
