DK Deepak Kodi ,
There is a problem with that solution :

When in a Browser and i wish to right-click the current Tab , so I can duplicate the page , the right-click no longer works . No popup to give me the option(s) .
Hmm...
As a matter of fact ,
the solution completely disabled the Right-click button
No more SendTo .........etc................

Is there a way to fix this ?
Thanks...Vern

I'm on 10 here and don't see this issue. At the office we have over a dozen w10 machines. I wonder if it's the mouse like others noted?
