Description

Context menu on Server Explorer connections do not show actual menu items if we have a Windows Forms application open in VS 2026.
Steps to reproduce -

  1. Launch VS 2026 and open Server Explorer which has connections already created
  2. Create a new project - 'Windows Forms App (.NET Framework)'
  3. Expand a Connection node in Server Explorer
  4. Open context menu on the Connection node - it does not show all items of the context menu.

Screenshot of the issue -

If we click on 'Output' window and again open context menu on Connection node, it works - shows all context menu items.

This issue might be reproducing with 'Microsoft SQL Server' connections in Server Explorer also.
