I'm running Windows with Swedish language settings and in my case the row is not blank but says "Läser in..." (roughly "Loading..."). Over time this becomes quite irritating.

However, I think the menu is *always* displayed and then removed, just that when it is cached (probably: loaded into memory) it is removed very quickly so you don't really see it as "Loading...". I would guess this is really a Windows Explorer issue and there is not much a context menu application can do - it needs to be loaded before it can decide that it should not display itself. I think Stefan mentioning somewhere that he wrote the Context menu for TortoiseGIT as well so I would expect any fix to apply to both programs.
