When I click on a submenu item in the Start Menu, the new submenu opens to the right and adjacent to the parent menu, which seems to be normal.

However, when I right-click on menu item, the context menu does not open right/adjacent, but only slightly offset to the right and overlapping the parent menu.

My question is: Is there a way to make the right-click context menu behave like a normal submenu, that is, opening completely to the right of the parent menu so that it does not overlap any of the parent menu? Thanks.

The context menu always appears at the position of the mouse. That's how it works everywhere in Windows. If you want it to appear more to the right then click there.

Instead of using the mouse, you can also use the context menu key on the keyboard or Shift+F10 to show the context menu. In that case, it will always appear besides the item.
