    Some days ago I noticed that while looking at the right side of my screen, there is a small portion of my desktop, about 1 or 2 pixels wide, showing, even if the windows are completely maximized, did anybody have a similar problem, or does anyone know how to solve it? I also have a screenshot, even if it's kinda hard to see it and you need to zoom all the way in to see it.

    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.
