    Yes, I have changed the scaling settings and that didn't help. I understand it is a bug in Win11 and Microsoft are going to issue an update to fix it. Don't know why you don't know that.

    I'm enjoying being able to use that function properly and have the menu come down South. If changing the scaling. we'll fix it for this time being until they come up with a fix. I'm happy with that.

    I haven't come across a computer that change the scaling hasn't fixed it.

    @tom tom 09,

    If you know how to disable the feature id:51960011 showed in my previous post, it will work fine with any scale.

    That is the feature id that added the bug when MS enabled it by default on all 24H2 Builds and also in Canary. 😎😝🤬🤷‍♂️

    fg2001,

    I don't know how to disable id:51960011

    I changed the scaling about a month ago. and didn't have any side effects. so I didn't look into it any further. thinking they will come up with a repair on a future update.

    Unfortunately, I cannot explain how on this MS forum, because the moderators don't allow that subject of discussion and would remove it.

    If you are interested, you can find detailed instructions on some other non-MS forums. 😎🤷‍♂️
