    Apps not Taking Up Entire Screen Space [​IMG]

    Recently, I've realized that my applications (not just browsers) won't take up the allotted space (located in red) on the screen when pushed to the left and right. Is there any way to reset this function? I'm pretty sure it's not the browser as I've tried this on Linux and it doesn't happen.

  3. BitLocker encrypting Used or Entire space?


    I usually been reinstalling Win10 to get rid of the so called "clutter" on my system to make it more fresh and such.
    Regarding BitLocker, I always select to encrypt the entire drive as opposed to encrypting used spaced only.
    The entire drive option takes literally 9 hours to encrypt and complete.
    So I was thinking, is it wise to always select Encrypt Used Space Only whenever I reinstall in the future or is that option only for new machines and drives?

    I just don't have the time to wait for my entire drive to be encrypted as I need to work on my programs and during the encryption process it just slows my system down.

    When encrypting the used space only, new and existing data will be encrypted?
    Am I correct?

    So when I reinstall Windows 10 the next time around, should I select encrypt Used Space Only?

    Just want to save time.

    Any thoughts or suggestions?

    Thanks

    Windows 10: Start Menu Taking Up Entire Screen

    My Start Menu is not working as expected. The Start Menu took up the my entire screen. I still can see the taskbar and its apps(Start Menu, Back, Search and Task View). I clicked 'Back' a few times, but nothing is happening. Under Settings, the toggled start
    menu for full screen is turned off, but it still takes up my entire screen. I have tried right clicking the windows icon on the taskbar, and clicking on desktop, but it shows only the wallpaper, the original apps on my desktop is not showing up. I have also
    tried going to task bar and start menu properties, but I do not see a Start Menu tab on it. I have also tried resetting my computer, but it only lasts for a few hours before the problem rose again. Does anyone have a suggestion on what to do?
