That is usually a windows system function. You can change it globally for all windows. Or goto to your own owner draw menus. It seems like to me, if you use 'Search', there are several custom menus on here.

If you are looking for a ready at hand solution - look here:

Otherwise be ready to set MFT_OWNERDRAW flag for your menus, process WM_MEASUREITEM, WM_DRAWITEM and more...
By the way, menu IS a window. It's class is #32768. You may superclass it.

Regards
