Then please test disabling Skia Menu/Tools/LibreOffice/View
Comment 6 Michael Buchholz 2022-08-13 16:07:00 UTC
... done ...
Disabling Skia don't change anything. Without Skia right-click also don't work.

BTW: I'm absolutely sure that right-click worked well with 7.3.3.

Maybe you have selected a dark mode.
Menu/Tools7<options/Application colors/Colors scheme.

EDIT say:
After playing with different themes and set back to default it needs some restarts to lighten the menus

Comment 12 Michael Buchholz 2022-09-11 07:46:33 UTC
Sorry, was busy ...

In the meantime I had downgraded to 7.3.x because I had to work urgently.
Yesterday I got some time and completely deleted the whole package, cleaned up the registry, manually deleted the remaining directories and disposed of all the leftovers that I could find.
Then I installed 7.4.0.3.

The problems no longer seem to exist here: Right-click works again and the menus can be read at any time.

The only thing that doesn't work anymore: Libre no longer remembers the window size and position when closing; annoying, but I can live with that
Comment 13 Timur 2022-09-12 09:41:41 UTC
So let's close this one. 
AS for window size, it's bug 150236 fixed in 7.4.1.
