I recently upgraded to 9.4M9 (Windows). SAS runs fine but I can no longer run any single programs in batch (the context menu contains nothing related to SAS now). How can I fix this?

Have you tried running a SAS program from the Windows command line like so:

sas -sysin 'c:\MyFolder\MySASpgm.sas'

I don't need this. I can run it using a batch file. That's no problem. I can no longer shift+right click and get a context menu with SAS options in it after the upgrade.

Providing a screenshot of what you are doing would be helpful.

This is what I see when right clicking on SAS programs now.

Any chance you upgraded to Windows 11 as well?  With win 11 I have to SHIFT-right click to bring up the old context menu which includes Bath Submit.  I think there's a registry edit you can make to make the old context menu the default.

It is Windows 11 and right click used to work now it does not.

In Windows 11, have you set the file association for .sas files to The SAS System for Windows as the default? Go to Settings -> Apps -> Default Apps -> Choose Defaults by File Type.
