Description

Problem occured when trying to right click delete from the menu within the imageJ file browser. The entire program became unresponsive, but windows was still working fine. ImageJ is not listed as unresponsive in the task manager.

I am running windows 8.1 and have confirmed the issue after running both update fiji and update imageJ.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the right-click delete action in the ImageJ/Fiji open file browser on Windows 8.1, using the attached ImageJ.configuration.txt and confirming the behavior after updating Fiji and ImageJ. Done means the file can be deleted without ImageJ/Fiji becoming unresponsive.
