Auto CAD ADT 2004 - Shortcut Menu's "Deselect" options gone?

[eco-sense]

Hello,
I have Auto CAD 2004 Architectural Desktop (ADT). I have the entire package loaded onto a desktop machine (not a network). I do have a NAS Drive (server) where I commit to storage of all our working drawings, pictures, and other memory intensive work. The NAS automatically backs things up really well and keeps the two computers from which are able to 'see it' functioning well and secure. This however, is not the issue, because ADT is not resident on the NAS drive its loaded on the terminals, due to the fact that NAS drives don't function that way anyhow.

My problem - the 'Deselect' shortcut menu's no longer appear to have the ability to load or activate specific editing commands? I have tried the options dialogue menu which provides an array of different possibilities, and the "SHORTCUTMENU" options 1,2,3, 7, & 11 the default. These are not providing the many different editing options I once had when within a command or simply within the drawing display area of my screen which used to provide several editing commands when after a right-click?

Does anyone know the solution to this problem without re-loading the ADT 2004 software completely from disk.

Is PICKFIRST set to 1? If it is set to 0, the right click menus will not include selected-object-specific commands.
