U2419HC, OSD menu not working

I can’t access the OSD menu on my monitor. It will always show the Input Source menu. I tried to disconnect all cables, restart, etc but nothing works. Am I missing something or is this a monitor issue?

    * Turn both PCs and the U2419HC off
    * Disconnect every cable (including power cable) from the U2419HC
    * Press the U2419HC power button in for 8 seconds
    * Reconnect the power cable to the U2419HC
    * Turn the Dell PC on
    * Reconnect the video cable from the Dell PC to the U2419HC
    * Turn the U2419HC on and choose the appropriate video input
    * At this point, you should see the Dell PC Windows desktop on the U2419HC
    * Press the U2419HC Menu button. Does it appear?

    The OSD menu only works when the monitor is attached to a powered on PC via the supplied USB Type-C cable (C to C) or DP cabling.

    Are you saying that you tried the above and the OSD Menu still does not open?

    Yes. I started looking at the OSD menu because my laptops (Dell and Macbook) suddenly didn't give/get any signal anymore from the monitor. Everything worked fine for a while. And now I can only access the input source menu when I press any monitor button. I never get to the OSD menu.

    Yes that worked. Thanks! 

    The only thing it won't do is detect the other Macbook laptop connect through HDMI. It works with USB-C but not through HDMI.
