eq1 not appearing in menu

[reizvoll]

ever since it patched from 2.0 to 2.11 (and prolly 2.01 or 2.1 in the middle?), when i right click the icon in the tray, EQ1 doesnt appear as a list to choose from. i can start eq with a separate icon i made a while back, but its still kinda annoying. ive been scared about reinstalling because i dont want to lose all the settings i have =p

not sure its needed but:

The trick is that you've hidden EQ1 in the list

Go into the WinEQ 2 preferences, click EverQuest, General, and turn OFF the option at the very top which says Hide Context Menu. Hit OK and restart WinEQ 2, and it will appear next time

aha! i thought that was to disable the shift right click menus in game, duh. thanks for responding to my stupidity.

To do that, go into the Hotkeys settings and find the menu hotkey (Shift+RClick) and change it to NONE

[reizvoll]

aye aye, thanks catpn. knew it was there somewhere. keep accidentally exiting the game with that =p
