I have three screens and using Windows 10. When I right click on the right part of my main screen, the context menu appears on the third screen. The same happens on the left side of my second screen. This also happens for all sub menu items. For example if I click the three dots and go to "Tools" which has a sub-menu, the sub-menu appears on the third screen. This is extremely frustrating. I noticed it after the latest update.
I have tried all the basics including restarting my PC etc. to no avail.

2025-05-08T21:57:09+00:00 A workaround is to use the Surface Pro as the main monitor.
It's not optimal in terms of taskbar management or window opening, but it's a lesser evil and the problem is “solved”.

2025-05-08T20:12:31+00:00 This is a frustrating issue!! I agree that setting all monitors, including your laptop, to the same SCALE resolves the issue BUT the RESOLUTION doesn't seem to have to be the same.
The recommended SCALE for my monitors is 100% and my laptop is 150%. Setting them at 150% makes the monitors too big and setting them to 100% makes the laptop very small! I am old and wear bifocals!!
The RESOLUTION for my monitors is 1920x1080 (16:9) and my laptop is 2560x1600 (4:3). So, I set the scale to 100% on all of them and changed my laptop resolution to 1920x1200 (4:3). This increased my icons and font on the laptop to a better size.
The smaller you go on the resolution, the larger the icons and font on your laptop. Just keep the same ratio as your laptop native display or the desktop will not go all the way to the edge of your screen area.
The context menu/settings menu are still opening on the same screen as the source window!
