    Fullscreen window on lower display creates artifact on upper display


    I use an ultrawide monitor on a shelf behind my laptop, so my display space forms a T shape. I also place my taskbar on the side instead of the bottom, as it fits better with the typical content of apps. It has been this way for several years. I often keep a window maximized on the laptop display and use the big one for multiple windows.Sometime a couple months ago possibly when my PC upgraded to 20H2, but I'm not sure, a strip of gray appeared at the bottom of the ultrawide whenever any window is maximized on the laptop. Even though I now know it's just an artifact, it still confuses me int

    I suggest you to follow the below steps how to customize the display:

    • In the search box type settings.
    • Click on system option.
    • Then click on display option and then you can change it.
    • For more settings for display you can go for advance settings option.

    Confusing statement! You want to change the display on your laptop that died?

    Is that correct?

    How do you know its the display that's bad?

    Just google "how to change display on a acer 5745"

    Should get you to step by step instructions. But first make sure its the display that's bad

    Fullscreen window on lower display creates artifact on upper display

    Problem with fullscreen on 1 display and not the other

    So, i have a gaming laptop, with annother monitor connected with HDMI. I set the laptop one as main and the multiple displays is set to extend displays (only way i can do it). If i am on fullscreen on one display and i click on the other, it brings the
    display off fullscreen. I went to tech support but wont do anything without the overpriced subscription. How can I make it so fullscreen in on the laptop display, but i can use the other one at the same time?
