Issues with UI scaling on only parts of the UI

I turned on my Windows 10 system to discover a weird issue with the UI where portions of the UI is massive and much of the rest of the UI is normal. The system was shut down the night prior through the start menu with no issues. Yes, the ui scale is set to 100% in the start menu and the resolution is set correctly.
Things that are too large:

• Chrome Tab Ribbon (but not the URL)
  
• desktop icon text
  
• most of file explorer
  
• right click on desktop menu
  

Things that appear normal:

• chrome body section
  
• taskbar
  
• the settings menu
  
• most other programs

How to make taskbar context menu appear near the selected button?

Hi

Welcome to Microsoft community.

To fix the issue where the taskbar context menu appears centered above all the taskbar buttons for the same app, instead of appearing near the selected button, you can try the following steps:

1. Right-click on the taskbar and select "Taskbar settings" from the context menu.
   
2. In the Taskbar settings window, scroll down to the "Taskbar behaviors" section.
   
3. Look for the option called "Combine taskbar buttons" and set it to "Never" or "When taskbar is full". This will prevent the taskbar buttons from being grouped together.
   
4. Close the Taskbar settings window.
   

After making these changes, when you right-click on a taskbar button, the context menu should appear near the selected button, instead of being centered above all the taskbar buttons for the same app.
