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.

Windows 7, Classic Shell 4.02. What frequently, but not always, happens is that when I click on the Start button I get my customized Classic menu, so far so good.
