    Open the VBA editor (alt+F11), press control+g. Type this text:
    Application.CommandBars("Cell").Reset
    At the end of that line, press enter.
    If that does not help, repeat the above with:
    Application.CommandBars("Cell").enabled=true

    Hi cauditrana 

     

    Vijay's first suggestion at this link worked for me: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/mouse-right-click-not-working-in-excel-sheets/74f65a2c-4a2b-4fc0-b29c-69c4d258a3a1

     

    Basically close Excel > navigate to "%appdata%\Microsoft\Excel" > move the files to a back up folder > relaunch Excel.
