Help I can't open the shortcut menu

Hello. I am not good with computers, but I’m a VA who recently started using audacity. The whole time I’ve been using it, the shortcut menu with options to split, cut, copy and paste would appear when I right clicked on a selected point on the track. Now when I try right click it just zooms me out. I have tried literally everything I can think of and my more experienced Audacity friend has never heard of this problem before. Anyone know what’s going on

The manual says that is the expected behavior, but that doesn’t sound right to me.
