Right click on a file does not work

Hey guys! Long time no complain!! Well I just bought a new desktop with Windows 8. It's been little stuff ever since. Right now I'm trying to clean out old documents and pictures. However, when I right click I get the little spinning hurricane thing and it just keeps spinning. When I click again (in frustration) I get the "not responding" message next to the file name at the top of the box. I have to go to Task Manager and end Windows Explorer. It doesn't matter which user account I'm in, it's all the same. On a side not, is there anyway to speed things up like loading apps?

Any assistance would be appreciated. I can't find any help with HP or Microsoft.

Do you have any context menu add-ons? If yes, try removing or disabling them to see if that fixes the error.

You have a new desktop with old documents and pictures? Where are the old documents and pictures stored? If they are stored on the PC how did they get there?

I transferred them from my old PC> Anyway problem solved.

That did it. There was something in there about SuperAntiSpyWare contextMenu. I deleted it and now everything is working. Thanks.
