Autohotkey script to emulate Linux/MacOS context menu behavior in Windows 11

windows_context_menu_like_linux_macos.ahk

; Make Windows context menu behave like in MacOS/Linux
; In Linux and MacOS, context menu is revealed on right mouse down event, allowing user to continue moving the cursor,
; higlight any menu entry, and then select it by releasing the right mouse key. 
; This script emulates similar behavior in Windows. Tested only in Windows 10/11. 

; Note: It may interfere with some games which rely on right mouse button. 
; Therefore added simple fullscreen-app check to not run the mouse listener


#NoEnv  ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases.
; #Warn  ; Enable warnings to assist with detecting common errors.
SendMode Input  ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability.
SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir%  ; Ensures a consistent starting directory.

	{
		Click, Right
		MouseGetPos, MouseXPos, MouseYPos 

    		KeyWait, RButton, T0.2 ; waits for 0.2 seconds to count just as right click

		{  
			;button held down 
			RightButtonIsHeld := true  
		} else {   
			;ignore mouse up
			RightButtonIsHeld := false

			; select the highlighted entry
			MouseGetPos, MouseNewXPos, MouseNewYPos
			if !(MouseNewXPos == MouseXPos) && !(MouseNewYPos == MouseYPos)
				{
					Click
				} 
		} else {
			; regular menu show, nothing to select
		}
