    But that doesn't really solve it though, it worked before

    Hi there
    try re-setting the Menu size in the Display options -- right mouse click on the desktop, choose personalize and then choose menus from the bottom option. (Done from the WINDOWS desktop -- not from Office itself).

    Example screenshot

    Cheers
