    https://1drv.ms/v/s!ApD4Xk7M-Zb3gZ8gGDxz4LhEZg2c5A?e=JQhR5y

    Boots up..flashes a 1080 top left corner, then it flashes off to show a black screen.

    I have to reset back to an earlier restore point.

    A couple of times, I've had to completely re-install Windows 10 and wipe everything except my personal files.

    Any thoughts or help would be appreciated!!!!

    I've stopped updating at this point.

    Windows Snip on 4k Monitor vs Laptop Screen

    I have a 1080p laptop, but 100% use it with an external 4k monitor.

    When I attempt to print screen (Snipping Tool) the capture size defaults to the 1920 x 1080 from the laptop and ignores the 4k screen. This means much is left off the clip, and the resolution is terrible.

    In practice this means that as print screen is pressed the 4k screen is shrunk to a 1080 version on the larger screen (ie, appears in the top left quarter), but this shrinking makes it impossible to get a clip with enough accuracy and DPI to make it legible.

    Any suggestions?

    Small Duplicate Screen at top left corner of monitor

    Hi Henry,

    It's possible that a third-party program caused the appearance of this small duplicate screen on your monitor. We'd like to learn more about your concern so that we could provide the proper resolution. We just have a few questions for you:

    • Which build version of Windows 10 is on your computer? To check, click
      Start
      , type winver, and press Enter. For example, 14393.1066.
    • Did you make any changes to your computer before this started happening?
    • Did you get any specific error messages? If yes, please post them here.
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    We'd like to see this small duplicate screen so that we could study it better. Please post a screenshot in your reply by following the steps

    here
    .

    As an initial recommendation, we suggest performing a
    clean boot
    to find out if this behavior is caused by a third-party program. This will load Windows with minimal drivers and programs, preventing software conflicts from occurring. If the duplicate screen stops occurring in a clean boot environment, check
    the section How to determine what is causing the problem by performing a clean boot for what to do next.

    Note: To return your computer back to normal, check the section
    How to reset the computer to start normally after clean boot troubleshooting.

    We'll wait for your response and the result of the initial troubleshooting.
