  1. 20H2 makes some apps overlap to the wrong screen when maximized.


    So I tried 20h2. But what happens is:

    Ive got 2 screens, an old 19"Acer to work on and a 32"TV to watch shows/movies on. They are set up like the 32" is 'on top' of the 19".

    But now a few apps, when maximized on the bottom screen, show their title bar across the bottom of the top screen.

    So basically I cant watch TV and surf Firefox anymore without the Firefox title bar across the bottom of my show.

    Obvioulsy its not the end of the world. But it's like the main thing I do with this PC: watch tv and surf Firefox. Like that's why I bought this rig.

    The larger problem is: Im stuck on 1909. The last 'feature' update I tried did the same thing, so I had to roll back. Now Ive had to roll back 20h2.

    Anyone? Ideas? Anything?

    (Ive tried all sorts of resolution changes. Played with all sorts of display settings in Windows and in my Intel Graphics. I tried to roll back my drivers last time. Last night the Windows support-tech did screen share with me and all they did was drag my windows around, minimizing-maximizing-minimizing... basically nothing. Then told me: "well, look the Edge window doesnt do this, just switch to Edge." SO, lots of help there /s)

    Google Chrome Browser Overlaps Taskbar

    I just noticed that this "overlap" happens only when Chrome is maximized.

    Chrome is not maximized. everything is normal.

  3. Flickering screen and unable to maximize items

    Hi Jane,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community, we appreciate your interest in Windows 10.

    As you are facing issues with flickering screen, do let us know the following to assist you better:

    • How often you see black/ flickering screen on your device?
    • What is the make and model of your device?
    • Is the issue of maximizing the screen confined to any particular game?
    • Were you able to see any error code with this issue?

    I would like to inform that screen flickering in Windows 10 is usually caused by incompatible apps or display drivers.

    I suggest you to refer to the troubleshooting steps like Check to see if
    Task Manager flickers, Uninstall an incompatible app,
    Update your display driver from the Microsoft article about flickering screen and check if it helps.

    Troubleshoot screen flickering in Windows 10

    Taskbar overlapping full screen

    Same here. Windows 10, after one of the recent updates the task bar --locked and not autohidden-- now overlaps Word and Firefox when in they are maximized. I don't like Full Screen Mode of Firefox and just want to use it as usual.
