I just tested the "Main.livecode" test stack (in the bug report) on a 
Windows 11 system with a unmodified install of LC 969rc2 freshly 
downloaded and it exhibits the same bug(s) with all 4 menu object types 
as noted in Comment 2 above.

This appears to be a Windows specific regression of LC 969 under Windows 
10 and 11.
