    Menus in non-ribbon Programs no longer function


    I use a number of programs that still use traditional dropdown menus, and most were developed prior to Windows 11 and some predate even Windows 10.After a recent update to Windows 11, these programs, when run, would not respond to mouse clicks on their menus. Keyboard shortcuts, like Alt+F and others were also non-responsive. if the program offered right click menus, these too failed to appear.I have found that some, if run as administrator will work, but the menus appear with an odd look, as seen in this image.

    Customize font sizes for menu bars, ribbons, etc.

    Since the new Windows update installed last night, all of my menu/ribbon font sizes have gotten very small. I cannot locate the place to change menu font sizes. I believe it was under display before this. I am able to change the overall display setting but all of the different menus and ribbons in my programs have reverted to a very small font. Part of display functions used to allow font size changes for separate components of the window such as menu bar, toolbar, etc. I can no longer find that option. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    menu on ribbon

    Are you referring to the ribbon menu? I suggest you click on View and expand the
    ribbon.
