Description
In Windows 11, all interface options related to handedness have been completely removed. Now, aside from modifying the registry, there is no way to configure the "Menu appear to the left or right of your hand" feature. I’ve observed that even when the registry option is modified, it no longer affects any applications across the system, including the Notepad app, even VisualStudio. It seems that only WPF still adheres to this setting. However, this adherence makes WPF applications feel inconsistent with system applications.

I believe it’s time to deprecate this option or provide developers with the ability to ignore it via an AppContext configuration.
The registry key is HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows\MenuDropAlignment
As @miloush says in #4641 (comment) , we can support the Popup.GetPointCombination
to use dynamic resource with MenuDropAlignmentKey
rather than directly SystemParameters.MenuDropAlignment
.
