I don't have a context menu?!
So a friend bought me Garry's mod yesterday and he was trying to explain some basics to me, and he told me to "hold c" to open the context menu. However, holding c didn't open it for me. He then told me to check my keybinds, but for some reason, I don't have any related to the context menu. As in, when I go to option -> keyboard, the top category is movement, not whichever category should contain keybinds for menus.

He doesn't know what to do, and I can't even change my player skin. Any help would be appreciated.

Option - Keyboard the first catagory on the main menu is "Garrys mod" and the bind is "use context menu"

As I said, I don't have that category. Option - Keyboard, the first category I have is "Movement", not "Garry's Mod".

Done that. Just started a "hard" re-install.

Edit: Neither worked. I have a screenshot uploaded to my profile if you're interested in seeing that.

Right, done that. No luck though, it still won't appear. However, this is what the console looks like after I held "c" a bunch:

] bind c "+context_menu"

Unknown command: +context_menu
Unknown command: -context_menu
Unknown command: +context_menu
Unknown command: -context_menu
Unknown command: +context_menu

So it looks like the game doesn't know what the context menu is? Evidently, it registers that I'm holding "c" but it's unfamiliar with what "context_menu" is.

Can you elaborate? My friend still has his context menu. Also, how do I change my character model, if not for the context menu?

"context menu", "context_menu" are both unknown commands. I've about given up, thanks for the suggestions though.

If it still need it its bind c "menu_context" not context_menu
