File explorer "see more" tab always opens upwards 24H2
Hi all! I'm on 24H2 with Insider RP build 1882. When I go into File Explorer and click on the 3 dots in the address bar for "see more" the tab always opens upwards. Hence if the window is at the top ...
On Feb 14, 2025, the MS blog for Build 26120.3281 says that the problem is fixed. That is not quite true, it appeared to be fixed on one machine but not another with the same exact Build number.
- Fixed an issue causing the see more “…” menu in the command bar to open in the wrong direction for some resolutions.
After some further testing, I figured out the difference for Build 26120.3281.
The different behavior is caused by one of those experimental features that was enabled on a Beta machine and not on another in Dev channel with the same exact Build.
Feature id [54792954] (Labels on file explorer context menu) is the cause of the difference.
That feature is the one that added the labels under the icons in the context menu of 23H2, which is not needed in 24H2, because those labels are already added without that experimental feature.
With this build 26120.3281, it seems to fix the 3 dots menu problem too but adds the second problem for the F.E. not closing just with a click on the red. X. 🤣🤣
Not a good choice, if I enable id:54792954 I have one bug (F.E. closing bug), if I disable it, I get the other bug (3 dots menu opening upwards).
Come on MS fix this mess properly!
