Thanks for checking. To clarify:

- I don’t have any custom shell extensions installed.
- I’m not using Nvidia drivers; my GPU is an AMD Radeon RX 6600.
- I don’t have any network drives mounted.
- The only thing I added was my Nautilus Scripts (https://github.com/cfgnunes/nautilus-scripts)

The bug appears specifically when the display scale is set high (e.g.,
200%) and the context menu grows larger than the visible screen area. At
that point, it freezes during the menu’s opening animation (eg. Nautilus
Scripts menu on Nautilus).

Importantly, this issue also happens on the live CD session (without
installing anything or adding extensions/drivers), so it seems unrelated
to my particular setup.

Title:
  Nautilus context menu freezes when display scaling is enabled in
  Ubuntu 25.10 beta

Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  While testing Ubuntu 25.10 beta, I noticed that enabling display
  scaling (for example, setting the scale to 200%) causes issues with
  Nautilus context menus.

  Steps to reproduce:

  1. Enable fractional scaling (e.g., 200%) in Display Settings.
  2. Open Nautilus and right-click on a file or folder.
  3. The context menu appears but becomes frozen. It does not respond to input until I click outside the Nautilus window, at which point it closes.

  This is particularly noticeable when using **Nautilus Scripts**. The
  context menu freezes every time I try to access my custom scripts.

  Expected behavior:
  The context menu should remain responsive and allow interaction with its items, regardless of display scaling settings.

  Actual behavior:
  The context menu becomes frozen/unresponsive whenever display scaling is active.

  Additional notes:

  * This issue only occurs when scaling is enabled (e.g., 200%).
  * I suspect the bug may be related to underlying **GNOME or GTK libraries** rather than Nautilus itself.
  * System tested on: Ubuntu 25.10 beta (fresh install, updated).
