Right clicking on Edge, menu appears on different screen, same happens for context menu

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.

    I have 2 Monitors and a Laptop for Display, and the laptop sits about 3 inches lower than the last monitor. I was having the same issue where the main display monitor would not extend to the next monitor, however the middle monitor would extend the display to the laptop.

    I went into my display settings and lowered the laptop so it was not at the same height as the monitor and that seemed to fix my issue.

    Hope this helps someone!

    Did you restart your laptop?

    I still had the problem after installing the latest version of Edge, but after restarting my Surface everything was ok.

    Additional info, making the laptop display, the "Main Display" solves the problem... but is inconvenient because I don't want that as the main display.,

    Laptop screen set to 125%, with two external monitors.

    Using Edge on the MIDDLE monitor, with the window full screen, or placed to the right side of the screen, the "Settings" menu will appear on the wrong monitor -- it'll show on the far right monitor.

    Same goes for window popups from plugins...

    I installed latest chrome update, and I tried resetting the video card... problem persists.

    I have found doing a Ctrl-Shift-Win-B to restart the graphics drivers will minimise the problem for a while.
    Not a perfect solution but it is quick.
