Open some other program that also has a menu. Like maybe a text editor.
Does that also act like that when you're typing?
Is your 'Alt' key stuck? That would bring up menus during typing. If I
was experiencing that problem, I would carefully press and release each
'alt' key, noting whether it seems mechanically OK. After pressing 'alt'
I need to click once on my text to take the focus away from the menu or
I bring up menu while typing. Next I would unplug the keyboard from the
usb then plug it back in. If it is a wireless keyboard I would also
replace its batteries, as I get random weird operation with a low
battery in my cheap keyboard. I would reboot the pc, and try swapping
keyboards with another pc to confirm whether the problem stays with the
keyboard or the pc.
