Answer: A popup menu is a list of options that “pops up”. This often happens due to a right-clicking of the mouse.

Right-click over the image below to view a popup menu similar to the one pictured. If you wish to choose an option from the popup menu, left-click on the option you wish to choose. Click somewhere else to make the menu go away. In practice, try to choose an empty area of the web page or program you are viewing to cancel a menu.
