Is there anyone can help me about this issue?

I am using Windows 10, but I don't see it there either.
I can see nothing in Windows Taskbar settings, which is where I would expect to find a setting to control this behaviour.

This might be a problem with shell integration in Windows. I have the complete right click menu, so it's probably system dependent.

do you know how to fix this?

I'm not sure how it actually works. I guess it might depend on file associations, so if those are not set correctly, Windows wouldn't keep track of files opened in Irfanview.

You may try to run IrfanView once as administrator, go to the settings and redo the file associations. Also let the settings save to registry. Hopefully it helps.

Finally! I know why I cannot fix my issue, i use a version of 4.30 which doesn't has such option!
I have upgraded it to the latest version now everything is fine!
The right click menu back online again!

thank you! Jenda!
