Italian term or phrase: menu` contestuale

This term appears in the index of a banking software.

I'm wondering whether this is translated as "contextual" or "multiple". Thanks!

Shortcut menu

Explanation:
This is an option if you want to use Microsoft-preferred terminology.

Here's an excerpt from the Microsoft Manual of Style, pg. 234:

context menu Do not use "context menu" or "right-click menu" to refer to the menu that appears when a user clicks the right mouse button in certain areas (or "contexts"), such as in a toolbar region. If you must refer to this menu by name, use "shortcut menu" instead.
