Context Menus and Multiple Taskbars

Microsux does it again?

Hey guys. I hope someone out there has multiple taskbars and can confirm this.

Also I hope Stardock can fix it. Although I think it's a Microsoft thing.

I have triple monitors with a taskbar on all monitors. The main monitor gets a different context menu than the others when right clicking the taskbar.

Yall seeing the same?

Secondary monitor taskbars can't have certain settings which is why the content of the menus differs.

As for the style, did you perhaps enable some registry key to remove the dark menu from the taskbar at some point? I think that only impacts the main monitor menu hence the mismatch in styles.

Hmmm, ok. Didn't know that. These are MS taskbars, no DisplayFusion, etc.

I am using a right click enhancement app. My issue was more about content than style. Thanks Neil. Appreciate the quick response.
