Are you able to add it back using: right-click desktop context menu > Configure Desktop and Wallpapers > Mouse Actions tab > Configure Right Button Standard Menu ?

I think this was intentionally removed by default to make the right-click desktop context menu less intimidating to new users.

Thanks, I've added it back in.

Perhaps it should be left alone on an existing system and not mess around with peoples settings.
