I believe this works as designed. There is a setting in Windows that controls on which side the menu appears.

This used to be part of Control Panel > Table PC settings > Other tab > Handedness.

However, I no longer have this tab on Win11. Try Settings > Bluetooth & Devices > Pen & Windows Ink > Choose which hand you write with.

The corresponding registry setting should be HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows\MenuDropAlignment.

@lindexi , Did you upgrade from Windows 10 to Windows 11? Or fresh install of Windows 11
