Windows 10: Right clicking on start menu shows a small empty/blank box

Hello, I have been having this strange issue on my pc for months now. when I right click on the start menu on my taskbar it just shows a small empty box.I have tried updating my pc and using sfc/scannow but it has not fixed this.

:)

 

Feature suggestion: Add right-click menu

Suggestion: Please add a Windows 7 Jump-List and/or right-click menu to the GPU-Z icon in the Windows taskbar. Possible menus in it would be "Exit" and "About GPU-Z...".
Maybe also "Switch to tab 1/Switch to tab 2/Switch to videocard 1/Switch to videocard 2" too.
Examples of programs that have such menus are ICQ, Skype, AIM.

NOTE: It seems for a right-click menu, Windows 7 is not needed - it works on WinXP and Vista too.
But even a Windows 7 Jump-list may be good enough.
What do you think?

windows right click menu shows blank

Original title: windows right click menu ran into crash

As i was debugging my java program, somehow i right clicked, but the menu didn't show as it should be. There were many blanks and i couldn't see the labels. When i clicked the Start button, there was nothing but blanks. The functions were gone.

After i relogined, everything went back to normal.

So, is it windows10 that is to blame...
