Change the length or duration of a still image

I have done this plenty of times by just extending the image on the timeline.  But now I can not change the length of a logo I imported.  This started a couple days ago.  I feel pretty stupid and greatly frustrated that I can't figure out how to make it longer.

Thanks for the Help

It would be helpful to get more info, such as what product and version you're using, and a clear screenshot of the timeline and logo ... but meanwhile some thoughts/guesses:

1. This logo is an image, not a video?

2. Is it still resistant to change using Right click > 'Change duration...'?

3. If you restart MEP (?) open a fresh project and import the image, same problem?

4. Presumably you tried resetting Program Settings?

5. Are there any locked tracks in the troublesome project?

Thanks Terry.  I was able to finally get the right click to work.  Yes, it is an image (jpg)  Usually I used the mouse to expand the image on the timeline, sliding it to the desired length.
