Right-click on file in Windows Explorer causes lock-up

[ggaudrea]

Hi!

If I right-click on a file in Windows Explorer (to get properties), most of the time Windows Explorer locks up. The explorer instance locks, the mouse sticks in hourglass, and the only way out of it is to wait a few minutes or end the task.

This only seems to happen on shared folders.

I am sharing a mounted OS X volume that is an encrypted sparseimage. Does this have anything to do with my problem? I need to be able to do this.

Thanks!

Any help is much appreciated!

Hi!

I'm a paying customer. Is this the wrong place for support?

Thanks!

Hello ggaudrea,

Please sorry for loosing sight of your posts. It is difficult to keep a check on each thread. Furthermore this is user-to-user support forum where you can discuss your problems and solutions with other forum members and you should not expect Parallels team to answer all the questions.

Could you send me a list of applications you have installed? Here is the path: Start->Control Panel->Add or Remove Programs.

Best regards,
Xenos
