IWMPPlayer::get_enableContextMenu method (wmp.h)
[The feature associated with this page, Windows Media Player SDK, is a legacy feature. It has been superseded by MediaPlayer. MediaPlayer has been optimized for Windows 10 and Windows 11. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code use MediaPlayer instead of Windows Media Player SDK, when possible. Microsoft suggests that existing code that uses the legacy APIs be rewritten to use the new APIs if possible.]
The get_enableContextMenu method retrieves a value indicating whether to enable the context menu, which appears when the right mouse button is clicked.

[out] VARIANT_BOOL *pbEnableContextMenu

Remarks
During full-screen playback, Windows Media Player hides the mouse cursor when the VARIANT_BOOL retrieved by get_enableContextMenu equals FALSE and the BSTR retrieved by IWMPPlayer::get_uiMode equals "none".
Windows Media Player 10 Mobile: This method always retrieves a VARIANT_BOOL set to FALSE.
