What happened to the context menu in my console application?

Question

Was creating a simple console application to do some prototyping and was shocked to see that the right-click/context menu is missing from a standard .NET console app!

I'm unable to find any information about this, and intellisense isn't helping.

So what happened to it? Can I get it back? And if not, how can I configure my console application to treat ctrl-c/ctrl-v as standard?

Answer 1

This is a windows console settings thing. Right click on the task bar of the app, click Properties and check / uncheck quick edit mode.

Also there is no way to get Ctr-C Ctrl-V working in console apps (as far as I know)

Answer 2

Context menu doesn't show up when you right click on the console app body (not the title bar) when VS debugger is attached.
