Adobe XD right CLICK problem

Hi all,

Adobe XD 38.0.12.13 WIN10

I had formated my laptob because I thought I have correpted files in the Adobe XD folder and it is the same ... when I click the right mouse button it shows only paste option ... I can not see the menu any more ... where i can show/hide guides ....

See this 

 

Also I had updated Adobe XD to the same version in my work computer and the result is the same ... the problem is the same ...

 

I can not work without mouse right click !!

 

Please review !!!

 

Thank you

    The latest XD update for Windows added a proper top-level menu that was missing in previous versions (to make it more like every other PC program Adobe and other companies make).

     

    It seems that they also removed some items from a right-click to simplify that menu (and make it the same across Mac and PC). Look for View > Show Layout Grid at the top of the application window.

    I just want to say I hate this, as I typically turn on and off the layout grid constantly to align content to certain grid columns. My hand is usually on the mouse, so using the top navigation means removing my focus on the artboard, and removing my hand from the mouse to use the shortcut key is just as annoying.
