I'm probably missing something here, but I can't get the context menu to appear. I checked in the demo code and updated it as follows to add a Copy function:

 public async void ElectronBootstrap()
        {
            var browserWindow = await Electron.WindowManager.CreateWindowAsync(new BrowserWindowOptions
            {
                Width = 1152,
                Height = 940,
                Show = false
            });

            await browserWindow.WebContents.Session.ClearCacheAsync();

            MenuItem[] contextMenu = new MenuItem[] {
                new MenuItem { Label = "Copy", Accelerator = "CmdOrCtrl+C", Role = MenuRole.copy }
            };

            Electron.Menu.SetContextMenu(browserWindow, contextMenu);

            browserWindow.OnReadyToShow += () => browserWindow.Show();
            browserWindow.SetTitle(Configuration["DemoTitleInSettings"]);
        }

However, right clicking on the window does not make the context menu appear - why not?
