Right clicking on the project folder populates the context sensitive menu, as described below:

If the loaded project contains only one .hm file, then the browser will create a new run folder and copy that model file inside the run folder.
If the selected project folder is empty, right click on the folder and click Select model file.
If there are one or more .hm files in the project folder, right click on the folder and click on a suitable model from the sub-menu.
If the project folder has both run folders and .hm files, right click on the folder and click Load Project.

For example, BilletSkinTracking is a project folder that contains run folders and models in it. When you right-click on it, you will be prompted as shown in the picture below.
