Software design is becoming as vulnerable to fashion as it is in the apparel, music and many other industries. Round corners and no sharp edges are in fashion this season. Windows is adapting.
Software users are putting more and more pressure on its developers to make it not only legible, easy to use and functional - but also nice. And since the perception of beauty and aesthetics is a highly subjective matter, the definition of pretty is usually the same as the current fashion. And in the case of software, the current mod is glass transparencies and rounded corners. Even phone displays can no longer be rectangular - there must be rounding at the corners.
Microsoft - which has many problems with bringing Windows to its design consistency - tries not to ignore these trends. He began to update his applications to keep them in line with the current trend, which was first pointed out by Windows Latest . Update of course with rounded corners.

Rounded edges go to context menus in applications, i.e. those available under the right click or holding the finger longer. The rounding is not as smooth as, for example, in macOS Big Sur - as the Fluent Design template shows.
Rounded edges will also start showing up in third-party apps. The novelties in those built-in from Windows probably result from the transition to the latest version of Microsoft's development tools, to which other developers will switch - thus automatically introducing new controls into the apps.
This is how rounded context menus do in the Photos app:
