( Still ) Can't resize Start Menu by dragging

I did a fresh install of Windows 10 on a new computer.

I then resized the Start Menu by dragging it vertically and horizontally. Worked.

Then, Windows prompted for a restart due to new updates. Did that.

Now, I cannot resize the Start Menu by dragging. Nothing happens.

I can't make it smaller. I can't make it bigger. Nothing.

Tried a suggestion of holding the Windows key and using the arrow keys. Nothing.

How do I do it?

 

Disable the automatic resizing window when dragging windows on the desktop

Using windows 10 Home, when I drag a window on the desktop, a shaded window appears that will allow me to select a fractional screen snap or to maximize the window. If this box happens to appear where the cursor falls when I simply want to translate the
window, it automatically resizes the window to what the box suggests. I simply want this suggestion box to be disabled, but I cannot find a way to do it. I have tried every combination of turning snap and its features on and off. I just want this annoying
auto-resizing suggestion box to go away.

Hi Jenith_James, and thank you for responding to quickly!

I did exactly as you suggested and it will not allow me to resize no matter how small or big I make it. The blinking box only surround a certain portion of the picture and does not allow that box to be resized. I can "drag" it but it will not allow me to
drag it to encompass the entire picture which is a logo. It is the craziest thing!
