Hi maintainers
I’m a student contributor and I’d like to work on this issue.

I can reproduce the bug on my system and noticed it is similar to #19444.
Before starting implementation, I’d like to confirm:

  • Should the context menu use existing localized resources, or
  • Is a new localization hook required for the settings text box?

Happy to share findings once I investigate further. Thanks!

I'm a student too. I am not a maintainer. Perhaps you could contact the maintainer, @DHowett ?
