Vista - Menu Open Appearance

Information

This will change all menus in Vista to appear to the left or right of where you click in Vista. EX: Windows Explorer Menu bar, right click Context Menu, etc.

WARNING

If the menu does not have enough room to fully open at the border of the window or display screen, it will compensate and open from the opposite direction of the border instead. This will override whatever side you have the menu set to open on below.
