I've a web page(which I don't control) with:

<body oncontextmenu="return false">

I want to enable right click but there's no way I'm able to do it. In the saved html when I removed this oncontextmenu then it started working.

I've tried all mentioned here, but it's not working for me.

Here is the saved copy of web page.

Try to execute the bellow code in webdev console :

window.addEventListener("contextmenu", 
  function(e){
     e.stopPropagation()
}, true);
body,html {
  width:100%;
  height:100%;
}
<body oncontextmenu="return false">
 text
</body>
