I unchecked, applied, re-checked, applied, that option several times, re-booted, but there is still no Imgur upload context menu in Windows Explorer. This is on Win10 64 bit

Have you tried running EasyImgur as administrator? Perhaps Windows is preventing it from making the required registry modifications to have a context menu entry.

Thanks for the FAST reply -- I tried that, but it didn't resolve the problem.

Could you perhaps share the log file (should be in the same folder as the
EI executable)? Perhaps it contains useful information for this!

Hmm, the log file doesn't seem to include any information that could give us a hint as to what's going on.

However, I just realised something: EasyImgur only tells Windows to provide the context option for folders and image files, and (I've just tested this) it seems that if you have multiple files selected Windows may actually not show you the EI context options if even one of the items in your selection is not a folder or one of our registered image types. Do you by any chance have a video file or a text file or anything else in your selection?

I had tried it on single PNG files. Actually for folders, there is the EI context menu. Also in the registry, there are only the EI entries for directories, but no entries for any file types.

Corrigendum:
...actually there is entries as well for different image files, like e.g. png:

Hmm, that is very strange... As far as I know as long as those entries are there Windows should give you those context menu options... Just now I tried downloading EasyImgur to a PC running Windows 10 (64 bit) which never had EasyImgur run on it before, and the context menu options worked flawlessly... Not sure what's going on here yet.
