Windows 10: New update right click (context menu) is way too big.

i noticed like 2 updates ago that the new context menu size increased so much. now i have to scroll to see the bottom just to see proprieties and rename. its annoying id like the old context menu, is there a way to get the old menu back?

:)

 

Context Menu Too Large

I feel your pain. Right click with the mouse, and context menus are perfect. Press and hold in touch, and they are far too big, to be useful . The bottom arrow is far too difficult and slow. Please fix!

 

Start menu, Cortana, Notifications menu

Me too. I booted up today and noticed the notification icon in the system tray had changed; mouse hover says "New notifications", but clicking it does nothing. So I clicked the start button to open settings to see if there is an update, but the start menu
doesn't open. So I clicked the search button to try to open setting that way, but nothing happens. I can right-click the start button to get the context menu, and the system tray works for other things like my Roboform and Norton, and I also can right-click
the taskbar and get the context menu there.

I restarted and Windows did update, but it still doesn't work.

 

If you mean the "New" part of the context menu you can use ShellMenuNew from NirSoft to disable what you don't need

 

no i mean the DPI size, not the length.

 

You can specificaly change the DPI ( font size ) of context menus ,title bars,dialog boxes , etc . in Windows if you arent using the global % size settings slider . FWIW I have the global setting at 125% and my menus etc. are fine on a 27" 1440 P main and 40"1080P extended display content screen .

 

i see what you mean but not it feels to artificial. at size 7 the size of the menu is ok but the font in it is too small




this is the normal size



i just would like the old windows context menu back( never mind all the stuff i have installed on the context menu above) it all use to fit




see how the look is different?

 

Try size 14 or 16 or insead use the global Window text app and other item size custom setting of 125% or 150% i.e. settings > system> display if you have more than one screen each screen ofc. would have its own setting .

 

Latest update fixed it. and added some cool new features!
