Thanks for the replay.

"DisplayFusionService" is not in the list on services.msc

Thanks

Edit: Did a reinstall of DF through steam and it works now. thanks for the help ]]> RE: DisplayFusion's desktop context menu not showing since Creator's Update (Windows 10) https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/displayfusions-desktop-context-menu-not-showing-since-creators-update-windows-10/?ID=28ae3e6b-30d2-4733-b3a9-947a7e312beb#7 Wed, 10 Jan 2018 15:18:01 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/displayfusions-desktop-context-menu-not-showing-since-creators-update-windows-10/?ID=28ae3e6b-30d2-4733-b3a9-947a7e312beb#7 DisplayFusion @Ciaron: It sounds like the DisplayFusion service isn't running, and it needs to be in order for DF to setup the Desktop Context Menu. Can you try this?

  • Open a Run prompt (Windows key + R on the keyboard)
  • Type in services.msc and click OK
  • In the Services window, locate "DisplayFusionService"
  • Right-click it, and click Start
  • If DisplayFusionService.exe now shows up in the Windows Task Manager > Details tab, try opening the DisplayFusion Settings, and click Apply
  • Is the Desktop Context Menu there now?

Hi

This happened to me after the last windows 10 update. i am on Steam v 9.1. DisplayFusionService.exe is not in my task manager. not sure what you mean when you say "apply the Settings", which setting do you mean

Thanks


I'm going to assume they mean when you are in the general settings menu and hit apply settings down in the bottom right.

Just to update, but for awhile now it's been working perfectly for me. I don't remember when it happened, but I'm assuming it didn't take too long after I made the original post. Possibly a few weeks. Currently running version 1709, Build 16299.192 of Windows 10 Home and the Steam 9.1 version of DisplayFusion, just for reference. ]]> RE: DisplayFusion's desktop context menu not showing since Creator's Update (Windows 10) https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/displayfusions-desktop-context-menu-not-showing-since-creators-update-windows-10/?ID=28ae3e6b-30d2-4733-b3a9-947a7e312beb#5 Tue, 09 Jan 2018 20:05:56 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/displayfusions-desktop-context-menu-not-showing-since-creators-update-windows-10/?ID=28ae3e6b-30d2-4733-b3a9-947a7e312beb#5 DisplayFusion Hi

The DisplayFusion Windows service should be creating the context menu entries when you apply the Settings. Can you check the Windows Task Manager > Details tab to see if "DisplayFusionService.exe" is running?

I've tried unchecking, applying, and rechecking the checkbox for the setting in the settings menu and nothing changes. Restarting my computer has done nothing as well. I'm running the Steam version, 8.1.2. I really would like the get it back, as it was the easiest way to open up the location of a wallpaper in the filesystem (I have it rotate through several thousand ones and occasionally want to remove one from the cycle.) Thank you. ]]>
